John Prine in Duluth at the DECC

Photobucket

John Prine plays the DECC Sept 23rd. Tickets went on general sale today and seemed to be going at a decent clip when I picked some up.

(insert obligatory rant about ticket prices, mumble mumble)

Homegrown Music Festival 2010 Schedule

May 2-9
Eight days, 25 venues, 150 bands.

Click here for the schedule.

Come on already!

It’s been five years — what are you waiting for?!

The Current radio station should come to Duluth!

(If we can get the mayor to jump in the lake for Google, I’m sure we can get him to do something good for bringing awesome music to the northland!)*

* Note: This is not actually endorsed by Mayor Ness, please don’t hate me!

Friday at Luce

Three Local bands will play original rock & folk music and then cover the Beatles ‘Let it Be’ at the end of the night.

Hear:
– Two Beat Band singing “Don’t Let Me Down”
– Old Knifey & the Cuthroats singing “The Long & Winding Road”
– The Fontanelles playing the original and uncut version of “Dig It”
– Terrible banter from socially awkward singers.

See:
– Lots of flannel.
– Lots of PBRs
– Fontanelles’ confusing material with songs from “Let it Be”
(Replacements) and “Let it Bleed
– the BRAND NEW “Old Knifey” dance.

We promise there will be no ruffies at this show. But we can’t promise there will be cake.

4/16/10 Luce

If you can’t join’em…

Then humor me for a second.
