I Lost Control at Empty Bottle 02/12/10

Thanks for all your support. Happy Holidays and here’s to a safe and happy New Year!

Stevo, Toby, Grant and Jennifer

Hey all:

Toby has been busy updating some of our songs in the various spots around the Internets.

There are now some updated versions of our songs as well as the first ever live recording of our new sad, but extremely danceable number, Denial. The song was debuted and recorded at Cole’s on December 5th. Check up out and let us know what you think!

Hey all!

Just want to remind you that I Lost Control is playing Cole’s in Logan Square for the first time. There’s a great lineup of indie music. So come early, stay late, drink from a fine selection of beer!

09PM – Life Number Nine
10PM – Evening Bells
11PM – William Steffey
12AM – I Lost Control

We’re going to debut some new songs…be the first to hear ‘em!

I’m back at the Horseshoe this month on a new night to spin some choice Iggy, Dolls, Velvets, and Ramones among other 50s to 70s Protopunk artists. Stop on by The Horseshoe Stop on by Wednesday, November 11th starting at 8:30PM.

I Lost Control is back at our favorite bar, Lizard’s Liquid Lounge for a couple of fall shows. First up is Friday, October 6th. For Pilots play an early set at 6PM with I Lost Control turning up the heat around 10PM. There is no cover (but a big A$$ed tip jar is available to show your monetary-based appreciation.) This is a 21+ show.

If you haven’t seen us recently, check us out. We have two or three new tunes that we’re sure your going to love. Lizard’s is located at 3058 W. Irving Park Rd in Chicago. Here’s the map:

I’m doing my regular second Monday ProtoPunk night at The Horseshoe tomorrow, August 10th, at 8:30PM. Come on out for some Iggy, Dolls, Lou, Roxy, Pere Ubu, and more!

Stevo spins protopunk hits the second Monday of every month!

ILC returns to Lizard’s this weekend (August 8, 2009) for a late summer gig. We’ve been busy in the new rehearsal space painting, decorating, and sound deadening, but more importantly, working up some brand new tunes. We’re hoping to debut at least two of them for you! Don’t miss it!

Our good friend, Finn Swingley will be on hand to open with a stripped down version of Evening Bells.  Don’t miss them either!

Lizard’s is located at 3058 W Irving Park Rd. Music starts 9:30ish. No cover (but there’s a big a$$ed tip jar).

We’re excited! The new I Lost Control rehearsal space is just about ready. We’ve signed the lease and will be ready to rock by the end of next week. The new space is over 600 sq. ft. We’re all looking forward to some new sessions to work up our new tunes!
