    The Real Nasty is playing at The National Underground at 8:00pm. Throughout rock history, one thing has always been crystal clear: the best bands don't stay still very long. Stagnation is death and repetition nothing but a bore. Taking risks, dodging complacency, never looking back-that's where timeless music comes from. The Real Nasty, the celebrated Oakland, California-based trio formed in January 2009, has already done more evolving in that short span than most bands do in a lifetime. Now, with the release of Dirty Dollars, their third CD for the Ninth Street Opus label in as many years, they've taken a quantum leap."Dirty Dollars represents the development and refinement of our sound," says bassist and songwriter Ryan Lukas, who co-founded the band in January 2009 with guitarist Jacob Groopman and drummer Matthew "Smitty" Smith. "Originally the concept was to play rock and country but as the band has developed, the need to find a common thread between the two styles has become apparent. To refine the sound we have been leaning on the blues, funk and even some jam elements to push forward. Lyrically the album is similar: songs about love, passion, romance, relationships good and bad, drinkin', drivin' fast and girls that love scrappy brutes that play loud, sexy music.

    Mandy and the Bandits perform at 7:00pm.
