The Sunset Junction Fair is cancelled, we have swallowed the bitter pill, but bands that were supposed to play at the festival, have now re-scheduled gigs throughout Silver Lake and Echo Park.

6. Peaches at Freak City following special guests, starting at 9 p.m.
And Tapes N’ Tapes will play the Satellite the next day with Stone Darling who have a Monday residency this month.
DangerBird Records and Vacation Vinyl are very close to each other and I suppose the shows are free?? So will be the shows at Origami Vinyl. But it will now cost you more money if you want to see all the bands that were supposed to play: $22 (or $25 at the door ) to see Butthole Surfers and 400 Blows on Saturday and $18 to see Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Charles Bradley and Hands on Sunday at The Echoplex, or $15 to see Art Brut, Art Vs Science and The Hundred Days on Saturday at The Satellite.
El Cid did not modify its schedule as it was an indoor stage, but what about Hanson?
And one last thing, all the junction shops will have sidewalk sales this weekend, giving us a little taste of what could have happened.
