Robot Rocket Residence

You may have noticed a house in East Davis that happens to have a giant KDVS billboard in the backyard. You don't need to know why the billboard is here and not along I-80, but you do need to know that it instead makes a beautiful backdrop for the outdoor stage. (The billboard was relocated to the Goondocks -on Lehigh- during Elisa's going-away party! We should construct a giant robot/rocket to replace it.)

Shows here tend to be on the mellower, poppier end of the spectrum, partly because outdoors shows can't be too loud, but mostly because that's what the residents like to listen to. Shows are always free with donations encouraged. Potluck baked goods and fruits are always welcome.

(Formerly known as the Rocket Tones Residence, and perhaps even more formerly known as a show house in the '80s according to Mick Mucus.)

For booking info, contact superpinkplant@gmail.com

Part of the KDVS house show network. Here are our house buddies: Dam Haus, Villanova House, The Shack, The Pink House
