Gillis Silo at Huey's Downtown

Posted by SweetD on 1/19/14 at 7:01 pm
Was downtown Friday night and stopped by Huey's on Third and The Gillis Silo was playing. They actually sounded really good, and I've never seen a band pack Huey's out with that many people before. Anyone else make it out for the show?

I don't know, there's not much "paint by numbers" about that guitar solo
It's upbeat and has a musical texture that you don't usually hear in the Baton Rouge scene. I really like it. :nana:
It is an excellent resource. We are excited and we are learning. It's extremely helpful to hear feedback on how to make the experience more enjoyable for you.
We did learn a lot from the first show and are listening to the concerns on this board so we can address these issues in the future. We appreciate the constructive criticism provided and appreciate those of you that came out and supported Mutemath and American Cancer Society on Friday.

Thank you for your constructive criticism! We are constantly looking for ways to improve.

Platform is a Baton Rouge-based event productions company.
The goal is to bring acts to Baton Rouge so that going to New Orleans or Lafayette isn't necessary. There isn't much to do in Baton Rouge and we'd like to change that.

Also, for each show we are pairing a regional act (i.e. Mobley, Adam Dale) with a larger national act to help potentially springboard some local talent into the spotlight. If you know anyone trying to make it in the music scene, please send us a sample of their work - one of the best parts of the job is listening to new music, especially when the artists are passionate about their work.

Additionally, each of our shows benefits a non-profit. The first two shows of the Union Sessions are donating a portion of the proceeds to American Cancer Society.

The website is still being perfected, but if you'd like to take a look it is platform225.com More info will be added this week.

We're new, we're learning, and we're excited. I hope this helped answer some of your questions.

Glad you enjoyed seeing Mobley! We'd love to hear suggestions on how to make our shows the best they can be.

Are you familiar with Adam Dale? He is opening for Mat Kearney this Friday in the second show of the Union Sessions. Hope to see you there!
