Austinist Show Preview: The Black Lips at Waterloo Records & Emo's

The Black Lips impressed us immensely during their various SxSW performances this year. Their fusion of garage, punk, blues, and pyschedelia packaged in an extremely energetic live show was one of the more memorable moments of the festival. The Atlanta based act returns to Austin this Friday for multiple performances yet again. The Black Lips released their fifth album (and their first studio full-length for Vice Records), Good Bad Not Evil in 2007.

The Black Lips will perform at Waterloo Records at 5 p.m. on Friday followed by a full gig at Emo’s later in the evening. Fellow Georgians, The Selmanaires, along with The Strange Boys (from Texas) and Mississippi’s Colour Revolt round off the eclectic bill. Check it out on us:

This contest is now closed. Thanks for reading, and congratulations to Chad and Robert!
