RTP-area local music and culture

["Mary M. Brunnemer" <marymarymb AT gmail.com>]

Forgive me if this gets posted twice--I seem to be having technical 
difficulties with my email today.

I think I have hard copies at my house of some of these if anyone is 
interested--the Dillon Fence, the Veldt, & the John Svara ones. I know 
for sure I saw the John Svara one in my pile of mags last night and I'm 
pretty sure I have the other two. Seems like the Dillon Fence one was a 
small bit in the "New Faces" section if I remember correctly, and I 
remember photos of the Veldt & JS being pretty big, so maybe they were 
longer articles.

By the way, Dillon Fence is playing for free in Raleigh tomorrow (Sat. 
7/22). It's downtown in Moore Square in some kind of Budweiser sponsored 
music series that is apparently going on all summer. I think there are 
other bands during the day & night but word is that DF will be on by 8pm 
sharp. I hope to be there for just the Dillon Fence part. So if anyone 
else wants to relive their college days or go see something you never 
got to see b/c you moved here too late... :-)
