Koffin Kats are sorta punk\/psychobilly awesomeness. Municipal Waste is metal\/hardcore for angry swillers of PBR. The Misfits don&#8217;t really do drinking songs but singing along to &#8216;Where Eagles Dare&#8217; or &#8216;Skulls&#8217; at the top of your lungs with a drink in your hand is just a damn good time. The Octane Saints are kick-ass and there will probably be eye-candy as well at the Rock and Roll Fashion Show. The Street Dogs are kick-ass punk rock of the Boston variety, fronted by a former member of Dropkick Murphys. If you only go to one show this month, that White Cross show is the one to hit up. Reasonably cheap, and I&#8217;ve played every band playing (except for White Cross, amusingly) on Mother&#8217;s Milk. Beex and Octane Saints are kick-ass punk\/rock, Jimmy Catlett sort of reminds you of the 80s and is a solid song-writer with a number of drinking tunes, and I can&#8217;t remember what the Offenders sound like but I know I enjoyed them live &#8211; I&#8217;ve never seen\/heard White Cross but they&#8217;re RVA-legends. Carbon Leaf seems a little pricey, but they&#8217;re localish Celtic-influenced rock and they&#8217;re really good live, if you&#8217;ve got the bank. Clutch is like no other band, a fun mix of metal, punk, blues, and Southern grit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DON&#8217;T MISS:<\/strong> White Cross, Octane Saints, Beex, The Offenders, and the Jimmy Catlett Band on 12\/19.<\/p>\n<p>Shows marked with an asterisk are shows that Mothers Milk will definitely be attending. Feel free to buy us a drink. I&#8217;m just sayin&#8217;&#8230; I&#8217;ll be the long-haired cracker with a McCormack&#8217;s hoody.<\/p>\n<p>As always, if you know a good show for gettin&#8217; drunk and havin&#8217; a good time, let us know. I&#8217;m not familiar with EVERY alcoholic that ever took to the stage, and I&#8217;m probably not even aware of every venue in RVA.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>This feature is going back to updating every month, and the most current version is always available at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/note.php?note_id=335838410261\">Facebook page<\/a>. \u00a0Become a fan today, and never miss out on drunktastic live goodness!<\/div>\n<div class=\"photo photo_none\">\n<div class=\"photo_img\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?pid=4349872&amp;op=1&amp;view=all&amp;subj=335838410261&amp;aid=-1&amp;auser=0&amp;oid=335838410261&amp;id=205966703097\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s Mother&#8217;s Milk&#8217;s guide to getting drunk in public for December of 2009. 12\/10\/09 &#8211;\u00a0Koffin Kats, Gojira X, True Liberty, Hell City Sinners for $10\/adv, $12\/day-of, 7 PM at Alley Katz 12\/11\/09 &#8211;\u00a0Municipal Waste, Brutal Truth, Phobia, Cauldron for $10, 6 PM (all ages) at Alley Katz 12\/12\/09 &#8211;\u00a0The Misfits for $16\/adv, $19\/day-of, 7 PM [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-215","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-concerts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=215"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=215"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=215"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mothersmilkradio.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=215"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
