SUNDAY: obo martin, fpodbpod, fox & woman, & a soap opera @ the make-out room + list of shows


hi everyone,

hope you all enjoyed the lunar eclipse on wednesday. (did anyone actually see it?) 

show highlight of the week: tomorrow (sunday 6/19) is the monthly seaweedsway showcase at the make-out room. it's father's day, so bring your dad (if you want)!

this month, we have a rocking line-up, with ruckus rousing folk-rocker Obo Martin otherwise known as Freckle Face, the pop/rock/psychadelic soul tunes of FpodBpod, & female-fronted folk rock explosion Fox & Woman. Jeremy Dalmas & the Absurdists, SeaweedSway Showcase hosts, are doing a soap opera too! (we are all in for a treat)


the night promises to be fun... as the full moon wanes and we dance right upon the threshold of summer solstice.

PRACTICE SPACE AVAILABLE AT SECRET STUDIOS
From il gato: We are looking for a band to fill a rehearsal slot at Secret Studios (2200 Cesar Chavez, SF, CA). You would have to share a drum set (yours or ours) with one of the current bands due to lack of space, though there is ample rehearsal and storage space for your band in the room. The drummer would have to use his/her own snare and cymbals. The price: $224/mo. for the band. Please email to check out the space or determine rehearsal times. Thanks! gato@ilgato.com
...............................
PRACTICE SPACE AVAILABLE IN OAKLAND
Waiting Room got a new practice space in Oakland and is looking for another band to share it. It's a few blocks from the Coliseum bart station. It's 12 by 18 ft, fan, dimmer switch. They're going to put a piano in there. So far, there are two bands sharing it. It's $455 all together, and so far they have 6 people splitting the cost... Location: Rehearse America, 8923 San Leandro st (between 85th Ave & 92nd Ave.) Oakland, CA 94621, Neighborhood: East Oakland / http://rehearse.com E-mail Ronnie at Spiltt@sbcglobal.net for more information
