I've actually never managed to make it for that. Every year I put it on the calender and every year something comes up and I can't go. Same thing with when they play at Bogies.

Maybe I'm jaded because I worked around all these guys trying to play music for awhile but I don't need to like a band to go pay a cover and drink a beer. Just support local original music.


I like your enthusiasm and I was once in your shoes... very idealistic about the BR music scene and what it could become.. trust me, I saw every single good and shitty band in BR back in the day...

Although nothings out the realm of possibility, to me, it just isn't that town and never will be...

Just appreciate what you have... and who you enjoy it with... Those were some of the best years of my life and my made my best pals..

old man rant over..

No its not hipster bullshite.

Most in the thread have proven over and over that they don't know what the frick is going on in their music scene. And its laughable for them to think they actually have a finger on the pulse of this music scene.

No wonder y'all think its dead. Move your finger because you're in the wrong place

You also don't have to go to boring arse singer/songwriter shows to support live music.

I go see bands that I'm interested in. But I'm not going to go see some shitty red dirt for the sole reason of supporting local music.

Who are you interested in?

Talk about them on here. Bring attention to them. You're fan of theirs. Fight for them.

I don't care what brand of BR music you get involved in but get involved and bring attention to the folks you like.

1. There are no red dirt bands in the state

2. "I go see bands that I'm interested in." Who is that? What local bands do you go see?

That's a big arse almost.

You've done it for local bands twice since October.

ETA: Yes I checked
