Tonight in Rock: Killola, Girl in a Coma, HAIM

Fresh off their tour with Morrissey, Girl in a Coma is playing their third and final show with Killola tonight in Glendale at The Scene. One Killola member says that the "shows have been extra saucy, and filled with hot love." We'll let you make your own decision. Joan Jett did when she visited the two bands last week to just to listen and have a good time.
Also, in our Alex & Sam interview a couple weeks ago, we asked them about their favorite bands. "We both love HAIM. They are three sisters that play their asses off. It's always fun to see them play. Best pop rock band I've heard in LA." Well, it seems the they have invited HAIM to play with them tonight at Tangier.
