Hey Everyone, Lots to talk about this week, so let's get to it. Thank you, thank you, thank you, to everyone who came out to THE COURT TAVERN last Saturday for another fun BlowUpRadio.com show! Big thanks to the four bands who put on incredible sets! BlowUpRadio.com will be back at The Court Tavern on Saturday January 22nd, 2005 for a co-sponsored night along with our friends at Upstage Magazine. Together we have lined-up one very special night of local rock...but we're not ready to spill the beans on that yet... In much sadder news, due to the continuing renovations at the Shannon Lounge, this month's FolK You! show (which had been scheduled for this Thursday), has been cancelled. I am very sorry to both the artists and all of you that come out every month for the show. Folk You! will return on December 16th. And now the big news of the week here at BlowUpRadio.com... BlowUpRadio.com has banded together with our friends to start a new section of the newsletter and website: That's right, now every week you will get 4 different local music vets talking about the shows you should not miss! Every week you will be able to read weekly picks from:
This is just another baby step in trying to help rejuvinate the scene by working together. As I like to say, "Band Together, Make Change!" Peace, Lazlo |
