This is where I will be posting my weekly personal picks of live music to go check out. I'm going to try to provide just a brief amount of information about my selections. Feel free to leave comments or questions and interact on this thread. Each week will be different so if there isn't anything that sounds interesting this week, check back next week. I'm going to try to stick with the Thursday announcements since it's right before the weekend and I can check all of the local schedules to make sure I am not missing anyone that I might want to recommend. I'm also going to try to include a variety of musical tastes, but sometimes there isn't a whole lot to choose from.
Bands and local artists - feel free to promote your shows on here, but if you do I ask that you interact and not just post your one liner self promotion of 'come to our show saturday' and then drop off the board. Also, no flyer postings please. There are plenty of other places for you to do that. Thank you in advance!

Cool idea...... thanks for doing this!

June 21st - June 27th Choices


Friday and Saturday (22nd & 23rd)
Aaron Newman is playing at the Deep Deuce Bar & Grill from 6:30pm - 9:30pm. Aaron has a folk/rock/singer-songwriter sound. He performs his own material as well as songs from his full band, Lemma. Some of the covers you might catch him performing include: John Mayer, Ben Harper, Damien Rice, Elton John, Dave Matthews, and Al Green.

Entirely too much information to post here!
Woody Guthrie Folk Festival ~ July 11-15, 2007 (http://www.woodyguthrie.com/main2.htm)

The Recliners might be in trouble tonight with the weather

Pearl's have a cover for their outside patio or do they just cancel if the weather is bad?

I've heard them at Dan McGuinness...Lead guitar used to be the drummer for Subroza...They have only been around for less than a year (I think) so they will only get better

Unfortunately Pearl's just cancels if the weather is bad. The Recliners get better every time I hear them. A lot of good music came out of Subroza. :-)
Pearl's number is 405-748-6113
You might want to call and check on the show status before you head up there.

A year of piano masterworks with Wayne McEvilly featuring Beethovens Moonlight Sonata.

Also I want to mention the annual Illinois River Jam is this weekend. Kicks off in Tahlequah today. Live music from Travis Linville, Resident Funk, Mama Sweet, Gabriel Marshall, Hosty Duo, and whoever else shows up!

I passed by the Green Door the other day and I was wondering if they were still in business? They used to host some cool bands.

Sadly, they closed their doors around January of last year.
