		<description><![CDATA[Exclusive: Pavement's reunion tour is here in Amsterdam, don't miss out on tickets!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2378" title="pavement amsterdam" src="http://amsterdameventguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/pavement_band-300x298.jpg" alt="pavement amsterdam" width="300" height="298" />This is one band reformation that we&#8217;re actually been wanting to happen since the minute they split back in &#8216;99. We&#8217;ve been scouring magazines, press releases and anything else with <a href="http://www.myspace.com/pavement" target="_blank">Pavement</a> in the title since we found out about their world tour next year and are now ecstatic with the news that .. the rumors are true, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/pavement" target="_blank">Pavement</a> are here in Amsterdam!!</p>
<p>After a recent musical nod to the 90s by lofi bands such as <a href="http://www.myspace.com/wavves" target="_blank">Wavve</a>s, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/Japandroids" target="_blank">Japandroids</a> and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/royalbangs" target="_blank">Royal Bangs</a> its nice to see that Pavement, the gods of alternative American indie and one of the most influential acts of the 90s, are back to show them and us how its done!</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t miss out, tickets went on sale Saturday (5th) and you know how these things go! Check the Paradiso website for how to buy tickets or head down to the box office pronto.</p>
<p>Starts at 20.30 and costs 32 euros + membership</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A band that pulls in influences from disco, pop, new-wave, punk and rave.. we cannot get enough. They're like The Rapture and Phoenix melted together in one big.. Royal Bang!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2292" title="royal bangs" src="http://amsterdameventguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/royal-bangs-199x300.jpg" alt="royal bangs" width="199" height="300" />What a find. One of those magical moments of <a href="http://www.myspace.com" target="_blank">Myspace</a> (yes we still use it, no we don&#8217;t know how to use <a href="http://www.Last.fm" target="_blank">Last.fm</a>) trawling and we found these delightful guys, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/royalbangs" target="_blank">Royal Bangs</a>. Grungy yet melodic, poppy yet intricate and interesting. It&#8217;s music that should&#8217;ve played throughout your teenage loves and losses, neh.. even soundtracking your walk down the street; it would definitely put a skip in your step.</p>
<p>If that made no sense, then think similar to frenchies<a href="http://www.myspace.com/wearephoenix" target="_blank"> Phoenix</a> with their catchy as hell melodies but with distortion vocals and heavier guitars.</p>
