French new wave band performs

Ooh la la, here comes Operation S, all abuzz with tawdry Parisian new wave that's by turns sexy and strangulating. This hot-and-bothered sextet crashes dark-hued keyboards and serrated guitars into singer Cecilia's breathy purr.

The band is making a rare U.S. appearance, which promises to result in one gloriously debauched night. Hmm, how do you say "hangover" in French? See the band at 10 p.m. at the Double Down Saloon, 4640 Paradise Road. The show is free; call 791-5775. -- JASON BRACELIN
