In what is quickly becoming one of the more highly-anticipated local music events of the holiday season, Saturday, December 6th will mark the 4th Annual Rock Potluck featuring the usual mish-mash of the cities best and brightest musicians, as well as, a traditional holiday potluck dinner.
The Rock
Potluck premise is simple, yet awesome! Approximately 40 personally invited musicians meet at noon on
the day of the Rock Potluck (this year it's
Saturday, December 6th). These volunteers are organized
into eight groups at random. The eight separate groups are then
released to practice at different locations throughout the day.
The musicians have nine hours to fashion a band name and three
songs (two originals and one cover). The groups will then perform
what they have created in front
of a live audience that evening at The Summit (located at 2210 Summit St. Columbus, Ohio 43201). <---
MAPQUEST IT!
The musicians selected for this event are chosen from a wide variety of bands in the Columbus, OH area in an attempt to represent a unique mix of personality and musical styles. This event intends to bring together many facets of a music community that may seem incompatible, as well as musicians whose interests may conflict or never otherwise cross paths. The challenge for these musicians is to try and go beyond their personal and musical differences and work together to create a unified group project that still contains the personal styles of each of the participants.
Doors will open at 8:00 p.m. for food and socializing (attendees are urged to bring a dish to share, but it is not mandatory) with music beginning at 9:30 p.m. SHARP!
Tickets for this charity event can be purchased at the door on the night of the show for only $5.
Proceeds from the Rock Potluck will benefit EROC - a new non-profit, artistically-driven, after-school program being developed for Columbus, OH.
