Jay Reatard, Birthday Parties, and Scary Clowns

Posted by Ned Lannamann on Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 2:19 PM


Jay Reatard - "It Ain't Gonna Save Me"

Here's the video for Jay Reatard's "It Ain't Gonna Save Me," which is somewhat reminiscent of the video for the Beastie Boys' "You Gotta Fight for Your Right to Party" except with more clowns. Reatard got the coveted New York Times treatment last week, and he's playing an in-store show this afternoon at 6 pm at Jackpot Records. Since the brand new Watch Me Fall album has (gasp!) acoustic guitars, Reatard might very well be in folky troubadour mode; meanwhile, you can list to all 12 tracks from Watch Me Fall on a little widget on Reatard's website. Check it out.

Jackpot Records, 203 SW 9th, 6 pm, FREE, all ages
