Radars To The Sky @ Spaceland, 7/25/08
Last month, local band Radars To The Sky (MySpace) performed at Spaceland (MySpace) in Silver Lake, opening for The Republic Tigers (MySpace).
As described by Andrew at Amateur Chemist, "Radars To The Sky continues to harness the buzz they built up after wrapping up their successful Echo Residency in April. Spaceland was filling up nicely as the members of Radars To The Sky took the stage. Andrew Spitser (Vocals/Guitars) announced early on that they were without their usual bass player but had some excellent help from members of Death To Anders, The Hectors and the Flying Tourbillon Orchestra."
Also performing that night were The Fieros (MySpace).

Tomorrow, Radars To The Sky opens with The Morning Benders (MySpace) for The Airborne Toxic Event (MySpace) at The El Rey Theatre (MySpace) as part of a sold-out show. They will also be performing on August 23rd at the Sunset Junction Street Festival (MySpace).
Special thanks to The Fieros, Radars To The Sky, and Spaceland.
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
