Max capacity was only around 60...so it wasn't a huge show, but it still makes you feel a little like a rockstar to have people turned away at the door because it's sold out!

Police and Fire Marshall came because there were so many people on the street and in the building...probably over 100 total. Good times, good times.

Thats awesome!

Where was the show?

I totally support local bands, one of my good friends is in a band here in Charlotte called The Turnaround, love them. Cant tell you how many shows I have been to.

I live in Asheville...but we might make it down to Charlotte in the near future! My old band used to play down there pretty frequently and I grew up in Charlotte and my HS band gigged out a lot around there.

Haven't heard of The Turnaround...what kind of music do they play/are they popular?

Not really popular, I mean Im not sure how much exposure they have gotten. They have played at Amos', Gin Mill, and Tyber Creek multiple times, they played at my friends lake party for labor day

They play like jam music, crazy guitar stuff, very catchy in my opinion.

Check em out on Facebook, you can listen to their stuff on MySpace.

They just lost their keyboard player/singer. You know anyone who can sing?

I've heard of those guys, I'll have to check them out sometime. I'm always checking out local bands.

Ever heard of the Solos? They play at The Philosopher Stone a bunch, one of my favorite local acts

Seriously?! You have heard of them?!

They are going to love this. How did you hear about them? I'm always trying to get them exposed and telling people about them. They have such catchy songs that make me get out there and dance at every single show!

However, I do know ...uhh crap now I am blanking on their name b/c I havent seen them in so long...hip hop/jam group, kinda like 2 skinnee js Im trying to remember their name. It will come to me here in a second

Edit: Eyes of the Elders is their name!! It was right on the tip of my tongue

The real question is, "Did any hot chicks show you their boobs?"

I've been thinking about starting up a Blink 182 pop-punk kind of band and calling it Flash Me!

Kind of like Against Me! with the exclaimation point, but who cares. Our name would ilicit boob showing

Well don't get too excited, cuz I play in three local bands and it's sorta my thing to keep tabs on my fellow musicians. The folks on here are probably tired of hearing me talk about my bands and the local music scene. Glad to know there's somebody else out there who supports the local scene.

hepcat's band is very good from what I've heard. I told him next time he comes to charlotte we should do a show together.

Yea when you're in a local band you are definitely really up on the local scene...probably more than anyone else.

And yes, we are playing a show. Would love to figure something out for Amos, Neighborhood T, or Tremont...

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      By Stumpy · Posted

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
