Huntington Beach's Venus Infers are not exactly new to having cool things happen to them as a band–they've gotten a ton of local awards and acclaim, placement on TV shows and some prime gigs supporting big names. But they're still assuredly psyched about this: opening up for former Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy tonight at the House of Blues on the Sunset Strip.
We got word from VI singer and guitarist Davis Fetter late yesterday afternoon, so things must have gone well Monday night at the House of Blues Anaheim, when they also opened up for Murphy. I talked to Fetter and bassist Richard Marion before the We Are Scientists show at Detroit a bit ago, and they were stoked about opened up for an indie/goth legend, bringing up how last November they got to open up for alternative/mainstream rock legend Chris Cornell, also at the House of Blues in Anaheim.
Tickets are $25-$27.50, show starts at 9.
