Nightlife Agenda Pick of the Week
Any e-mail announcing "The Return of Proper Utensils!" was sure to get our attention, because Rhome and Fritz are fans of the legendary go-go group. (If you ain't heard "Go-Go Rump Shaker," go find it now.) Featuring Lil' Benny and members of his group the Masters, former Rare Essence frontman Jas. Funk and personnel from R.E., Hot Cold Sweat and the Backyard Band, this is a band that cranks, from the brass section to the congas to the frontline. They haven't been active on the scene for a while, which makes Thursday's show at Mirrors all the more exciting. Also on the bill is Lissen Da Grew^P, the go-go side project of the popular Lissen Band. Doors open at 9, and cover is $20 until 11 and more afterward. As you might expect us to say for this show, leave the athletic wear and caps at home.
Looking for more going-out ideas? This week's Nightlife Agenda column has details on a show by Aquarium, whose debut album is "one of the best local releases of the year," according to David, and why BeBar is giving everyone free drinks on Friday.

L!ssen Da Grew^P is a separate band entirely from the L!ssen Band, not a side project.
There used to be one L!ssen with 4 male vocalists: Michael Thompson, Scooby, Tuffy, and O. Scooby, Tuffy and O left and formed L!ssen Da Grw^P. The L!ssen Band, lead by Michael Thompson, is what remained.
