Firsts: Sh*te that happened before other sh*te happened.
Today: Ben Brown and Jeff Brown from No Show Ponies’ Firsts! This time, we examine what inspired these two brothers that comprise No Show Ponies. The band was a part of local PR firm Giant Noise’s “PR Lab” boot camp which taught musicians how to best market themselves. The brothers Brown visited the Giant Noise twice a week and received tips on writing press releases, media alerts, and more. Head down to Club de Ville tonight to catch No Show Ponies live, away from the office and on stage, as they deliver poignant Americana ditties aplenty. And pick up their debut full-length The End of Feel Good Music while you’re there. The band goes on at 9 p.m.

Ben Brown: "Science Fiction Double Feature" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show. My aunt introduced my brother Jeff and I to this film when we were quite young. She had gathered an assortment of the famous audience-participation props (cigarette lighter, pieces of toasted bread, etc.) and a VHS copy of the film. I remember watching those infamous red lips sing this song during the opening credits and being transported into another world. Some say I've never fully recovered...
