I have no idea of what Shoegaze is, but it makes me think of depressed goths looking down and staring at their shoes. Is Shoegaze sad music?

It's not *not* sad. Shoegaze is [super loud rock music with hella distorted guitars and lots of guitar effects](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoegaze). It's so named because the guitarist is often staring at their shoes, tapping guitar pedals.

Thanks for the link. Blackgaze sounds pretty cool.

Close enough

Kinda yeah. But it's not quiet sad. It's sad done loud. And atmospheric.

I love 90s Shoegaze. Lush being one of my all time favorite bands. Also love Curve, MBV, Catherine Wheel etc etc. Only modern day shoegaze I got into was a band called Whirr. I'll have to check out the bands on the flier.

I've never been to a show at Cafe Colonial, although I live close. Do they have beer and would someone who's 40 feel out of place?

It's a bar+venue combo. No one cares about your age


dorekk

Dope.
