A 60s Mod Garage Party with the Black Hollies, Big Nasties, Autolite Strike
I'm a firm believer that finance should never dictate fashion. Some of the best, worst, and most memorable outfits I've ever worn were bought by the bag at some thrift store for what a kid at Mickey D's makes in one hour. Others were used but tastefully chosen by those fashionably forward kids at Atlas or Red Light. My greatest find ever was a black A-line dress by '60s mod manufacturer Bleeker Street. A feat of tailored excellence with its perfect pleats, fitted empire waist, and hem just above the knee, wearing it always made me feel like a chubby Audrey Hepburn, simply sophisticated and tastefully timeless. Tonight's show, with its mod theme, "tastefully timeless" throwback bands, and crowd of dedicated followers of fashion, makes me think of that dress, and of perhaps getting on the treadmill so my post-baby booty will one day wear it again. Sigh. With the Black Hollies, Big Nasties, Autolite Strike. Comet Tavern, 922 E. Pike St., 323-9853. 8 p.m. MA'CHELL DUMA LAVASSAR Sun., May 18, 8:00pm
