RTP-area local music and culture

["mattt317 AT yahoo.com" <mattt317 AT yahoo.com>]

hello all,

i just moved to raleigh in november, and just found
this list last week... sorta like from my old home
town, i had/have the sf_indie list....

since arriving, i've noticed one BIG difference about
shows out here... maybe the reason alot of people are
hesitant to head out to the clubs...

They end soooo late.... all five shows I've been to
ended close to or right at 2 AM, plus the drive
home.... this happened to me...twice at Kings (no
reason MC Chris had to perform until 2 AM on a
Tuesday), twice at the Cat's Cradle, and once at the
Lincoln. On A Friday or Saturday night, it's cool, but
on Monday through Thursday, don't we all want to  wake up
in the morning?

M-Th - Doors 7 / Show 8....
and really start before 8:30, over around 12...
does it make sense.... ?

Does anyone know if Local 506 is non-smoking like the
Cat's Cradle?  I dig non-smoking...

That said looking forward to checking out  some local
music now that I've found the source....  & i'm
looking forward to the fiery furnace next week! 

Cheers, Matt
