Tunes Around Town – July Closes Out with a Bang and a Thump
Posted by Sully in The Scene, Tunes Around Town on July 26th, 2009
July has been an astounding month for Live Music in the area. Currently I have 32 sets worth of videos and reviewing to do, from 26 different musical acts, all seen from 7/8/09 – 7/18/09. I can’t let it stop me with so many shows going on this week, I foresee many more sets seen before I finish the next review. Without further adieu, here’s what you should keep an eye out for this week! Read the rest of this entry »
The Scene – May 22nd, Finish the Night Right at The City Cafe

Downtown at The City Cafe
Heather Rose and The Drama were setting the stage at the Blackstone as Tim and I made our way out, discussing the sets from Sex Slaves and For the Love of Sloane. We piled back into my car and started heading toward downtown, on the journey we experienced what I could only describe as a Rhode Island moment. Driving along the river we saw a pimped out caddie convertible blasting some tunes, Tim and I both said “Someone’s out cruisin’ for the ladies.” Pulling up to the caddie we both wanted to examine who was enjoying the fine night out cruising, and burst nearly burst into tears laughing as we noticed it was my friend Jeff George.

Enjoying the new band’s tunes but exhausted, I headed home and took a well deserved nap, a late Friday night of shows and an early afternoon show meant I was going to have to conserve energy if I wanted to make the Jose Docen, Harpoon and Innocent Uprising show that night. Emerging from dreamland I realized I had only about an hour to get down to Snookers, never having been there before, I harassed my brother for directions. Deciding a night on the town was more exciting than a night of on-line poker Tim came along as my navigator, rather than give convoluted directions through the back alleys of Providence to my destination. As we got closer to Snookers we started to play the “OMG Street Spot” game. It goes something like this: Read the rest of this entry »
