Highlights of the Past Week

What a week for music... I have a big show announcement to make of my own, but stay tuned for that information. First a quick recap of some of the great stuff that went down over the week.

The Shamrock proved itself as an upcoming scene for talented young rockers with several groups bringing their rock sound to the Tri-State. Jordan Andrew Jefferson, Attack Flamingo, Sound and Shape, Atomic Johnny, Bad Employees and Given Hatred were just a few of the hot bands that came through the Shamrock.

The V Club also held up to it's standard as a hotbed for music with shows by the highly classy Bob Thompson Quartet, Yo Momma's Big Fat Booty Band, Jeff Ellis and their typically amazing open mic showing.

Woody's Restaurant showcased a local favorite, Shaun McCoy, who plays 90's tunes and originals with another great rocker by the same first name.

Stay tuned for the announcement and a calendar of what will be going down in the Tri-State very soon.
