July 2nd- The Make Up comes to Ottobar! Tickets on sale Friday at 10am at theottobar.com
.
.
.
THE MAKE UP is the Washington, DC group that re-defined underground music in the middle and late 1990s with their peculiar and incendiary blend of gospel, garage and yeh-yeh music. Known for their dynamic and interactive live presence at hundreds of shows across 5 continents, the group also recorded 7 LPs, 14 singles and EPs and and collaborated on films, videos, pamphlets, and happenings. They toured extensively as a headliner and with groups such as Royal Trux, Sonic Youth, Fugazi, Dub Narcotic Sound System, Lung Leg, Harry Pussy, and many others.
The group has been called “dazzling … best dressed … martial … terrifying.” Their shows were known to feature communication, sermonizing, crowd participation, and dancing virtually unknown in the staid world of indie and garage rock. Their style was perfect, with matching Mao style jackets, with new versions designed for each tour.
The group was widely copied as well and precipitated and inspired a wave of “garage” imitators in the 21st century who often had commercial success but lacked the spark, character, nuance of the Make Up. Occasionally, when the moon is bright and the wolfsbane blooms, the group has come out of hiding for rare and exciting personal appearances since disbanding in 2001. They are making one of their rare returns now for a short time only.

Madam Koi Koi: A particularly malevolent spirit in Nigeria, who in life was depicted as a stylish teacher in a secondary school known for her beauty and penchant for wearing red heels. Whenever she walked in the hallways, her shoes would make the sound "Koi Koi", which is where the name is derived from. She waa described as cruel towards students and would beat them without reason. This culminated in a particularly vicious attack on a female student, slapping her so hard the student lost her hearing. The other students, tired of the school administation`s failure to reprimand her, decided to take matters into their own hands. One night, as she was leaving the school, the students cornered her, gagged her so she wouldn`t scream, and beat her mercilessly, killing her. Attempting to conceal their crime, they threw her body over the school`s back fence in hopes of making investigators think that the damage was caused by an armed robber. Not too long after, students of the secondary school said at night they would hear a "Koi Koi" sound in the hallways of their dormitories after lights out, almost like the clicking of heels on a floor. Each of the students responsible in her death themselves were found beaten to death, until one remained who confessed their crime to the local constabulary, and was later discovered beaten to death in their jail cell. Madam Koi Koi`s spirit can not rest however, and is said to haunt dormitories, hallways and toilets in boarding schools through out the country at night, in search of new victims for her wrath.
