Don't miss the man, the myth, the legend, Primus bass god Les Claypool when he comes to town July 2nd for a 4th of July weekend bash @ the always fun Anchor Inn!! After bringing us such classics as "My Name Is Mud", "Jerry Was A Racecar Driver", "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver", and "One Better" you can't miss the chance to see arguably the best bass player in the world's latest psychedelic mushroom infused creations from "Of Fungi and Foe" Tickets only $23 in advance at www.etix.com for the concert event of the summer!!
Summer Solstice happens once a year, when the tilt of the Earth's axis is most inclined toward the Sun, causing the Sun's apparent position in the sky to reach its northernmost extreme. The name is derived from the Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still), because at the solstice the Sun stands still before reversing its direction.
In honor of this day, I'm wishing you a moment to feel the Sun on your face and Love in your heart! Go and do something wonderful!
Don't miss Vince Herman of Leftover Salmon in his electric folk, alt-country, a dash of bluegrass and good ol' rock and roll side project that is Great American Taxi at Lincoln's newest venue the Bourbon Theatre this Wednesday June 24th!!. Tickets only $10 in advance!!
Great American Taxi's sound has been compared to a variety of roots oriented bands including New Riders of the Purple Sage, a "Grateful Dead for the new millennium," Wilco, Uncle Tupelo, The Byrds and more. People will hear threads of the Leftover Salmon fabric propelled by an inspired Herman being supported by a cast of talented minstrels ready to follow Herman to the land of 'Festival!" Herman's in-your- face, in-the-moment improvisation helps bring the party to Taxi's well-crafted songs. People from all backgrounds will be able to latch onto something in the band's sound. Great American Taxi is truly a melting pot of musical tastes and styles all rolled into their "Americana without borders." The band has appeared at several premier music festivals including High Sierra Music Fest, Wakarusa, Summer Camp, 10,000 Lakes Festival, Dunegrass, and Nightgrass slots at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival.
Thanks for the add, greatly appreciated. It's an honor to be a part of your family of friends here. We too welcome you aboard the FRQZ train with hopes you enjoy the ride! Don't be a stranger, stay in touch, keep us posted to upcoming gigs and adventures, post a performance video, and so on. Stay TUNED !
