Okay back to the shows this week!
Friday night 3/28 there are two GNYC shows.
The first show for this friday night 3/28 is at the Bowery Poetry Club. Included on that bill is Celia Rose, Lachi, Kevin Orton and The Maledictions, Cinema Cinema, Lillapucians and Julie Echo among others. That fun starts at 7:15pm and it's a ten dollar cover charge. The Bowery Poetry Club is located at 308 Bowery at Bleecker right across from the old CBGB's.
The second GNYC show on this friday night 3/28 is at Maxwell's in Hoboken NJ. The bill includes Lifeguard Nights, Jet setting, Blast Rocks, Midtown, One Punch Nelson, Jason Youdoff and the New Hotness and Melinda Davis and the Eleventh Hour. Like all the other GNYC shows there is a ten dollar cover charge to get in and Maxwell's is located at 1039 Washington Street in Hoboken, NJ.
The last of the GNYC shows for this week is this Saturday night 3/29 at Arlene's Grocery. That bill includes Maslow, Future in Plastics (both MEANY fest 2007 finalists..Maslow were the MEANY fest 2007 runners up), Dr. Mary (a little birdy tells me they will be doing two new songs), Scribes in Fire, After Dawn, Domi and direct from the UK the Voom Blooms. Like all other GNYC shows it's ten dollars to get in and Arlene's Grocery is located at 95 Stanton Street b/w Orchard and Ludlow right in the heart of the good old Lower East Side. And this fun starts at 7:30pm.
Just a last minute note, I read in Brooklyn Vegan that the CBGB's Gallery space will be occupied by Morrison Hotel Gallery. Morrison Hotel Gallery has a Gallery in SoHo in New York and one in LA and one in San Deigo, they specialize in rock photography. From what I read they opened last night 3/25. I'm glad a gallery specializing in rock photography went into that space and not a Chanel or a Pinkberry! The spirit of rock and roll lives on in that space!
