Fashion show great but Electra ran late
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Saturday night at Fever nightclub Buzz took in an amazing fashion show sponsored by Thread House and hosted by “actress” Carmen Electra.
Why the “couture and culture” newcomer, who had to deal with recent burglaries at its West Peachtree store, waited for a tardy Electra so she could make a 1.5-minute intro we have no clue, but once those models hit the runway all hail broke loose.
Yes, “hail.” Buzz was smitten with the curves on the bubble jackets, the hip style of the mini-dresses and shirts, the stitching and fun pockets on the jeans.
The show screamed hip, funky, sassy, posh, glam — and we loved it. The clothes were the real star of the show.
Cure reschedules to June show date
Cure fans, mark your calendars nine months ahead. The dark alternative rock band is coming to Gwinnett Arena June 15, 2008, after canceling its fall tour, which had included a date this past Saturday at the arena. The Cure said it had to push back the tour because the group hadn’t finished its upcoming album. Ticketholders from the nixed Sept. 15 date can hold on to their tickets for now or get refunds at point of purchase until Nov. 1. Info to buy new tix is forthcoming.
Modern Society at Atlantis, but signed
Modern Society is going about thee music business thing backward. Usually unsigned acts play the Atlantis Music Conference in hopes of attracting some exec that can give them a record deal. The Atlanta-based rockers have an Atlantis date booked — this Friday at 9 p.m. at Star Bar — and they already have a freshly inked contract in their pockets. After 12 weeks of competing in Music Nation’s online contest, against some 3,000 unsigned acts, the Modern Society won a deal with Original Signal/Epic Records. “We just celebrated our two-year anniversary as a band in July,” singer/guitarist Woody Brown said. “So to have this happen, and relatively quickly in this business, it’s just kind of hard to describe in words.”
