What exactly IS Beg Yr Pardon?!
Beg Yr Pardon is here to make rock shows for people. These should be shows where people want to stick around for all the bands, where the audience gets involved, where they feel comfortable losing their shit a little when they hear some new music that they’r really excited about. At Beg Yr Pardon, we are never too cool for school. Everybody is in class together. Learning. …About rock and roll. The point is:Beg Yr Pardon is the brainchild of Christina, the lead singer of Man in Gray. The first Beg Yr Pardon will be held at The Delancey on June 6th!
Once a fortnight, we’re putting together parties full of great bands from near and far. Bands your friends are in and bands you’ve never heard of. Between and after bands we’ll have a bunch of folks trading off DJ slots (does that sound dirty?). These will be cooperative, loving people who do their best to honor all reasonable requests. Want to play something for a room full of people? Bring a CD or your iPod and submit.
Here's a bit of a preview of what is lined up so far:
June 6th @ the Delancy (lineup TBA)

Takka Takka will be the fourth band on the June 20th show. (we just hadn't gotten around to adding them to the site this morning when they confirmed). that's quite a tight little nugget of a night right there. order of bands still tbd though.
june 6 will be really good - just still working out the details!
bands should feel free to contact us through myspace (http://myspace.com/begyrpardon) or by emailing booking@begyrpardon.com if they want to be considered to play a show.
sounds like a ripoff of "Yr City's A Sucker" by LCD Soundsystem
burningoak - you're kidding, right? have you never seen anyone use "Yr" before LCD Soundsystem?
