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

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...

      Be careful, the copperheads are out big time

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I've seen several in the last couple of weeks. Had a close call this evening walking the dogs. My Rottie was at my side and my pittie was up ahead and about that time I see a stick laying across the driveway maybe 20 feet ahead. We get a little closer and that's no stick. That's a BIG copperhead laying across the driveway on the bridge. I grab my Rottie and now I have him in my right hand and the pittie is on the other side of the snake. She had to have stepped right over it. Neither dog had noticed the snake at this point and I'm trying to he chill and keep it that way. I switch my Rottie to my left hand and tell my little to sit and stay. Now I'm skipping past this copperhead between it and my Rottie and grab my pittie with my right hand. poo, this isn't gonna work. Now we gotta get past this copperhead again. It's about three feet long laying stretched out across the driveway on a 10' wide bridge. We have maybe four feet to play with so here I am with a 120# Rottie in one hand and an 80# pit bull in the other trying both trying to figure out how we're getting past this copperhead and trying to do it fast before they notice it and do something stupid. Finally decide on sending the Rottie who is my right hand scooting up the driveway ahead of us since I'm between him and the snake. We get up to the snake and I guide him ahead and tell him go,go,go, go and he happily goes trotting up the driveway giving me time to swap the pittie to my right hand so I'm between her and the snake and we scurry past. The copperhead never moved and never offered any sign of either aggression nor fear. It was just chilling.

      Yep they probably have some good tape on Daniels and Washington by now and the Packers do look legit

      I'm not. I think the Packers may have become legit contenders with that Parsons trade and I wouldn't be surprised if Daniels and Washington have a bit of a coming back down to Earth after taking the league by surprise last year.
