Imagine a pair of pleading li'l puppy eyes...nah, just imagine a bunch of butt-ugly bands playing to benefit the Humane Society at this year's Dog-a-thon. It's this Saturday, July 10th, at Little Brothers. Here's the lineup with approximate set times and "stars" in parentheses where it isn't immediately obvious (it's OK for me to put quotes around that word--I'm one of the putative luminaries):

9pm sharp! #1 Cat
9:20 The Mendelsonics
9:40 Stardog Champion (Fes of Black Mountain Creeper)
10pm 42 North (Gary Braunns)
