RTP-area local music and culture

[Jeff Hart <jeffhoo1 AT gmail.com>]

to elaborate on ross' stuff this week post (many thanks), the amps do
furnish a room set happens at 10pm. is a 30th anniversary tribute to
this landmark television record. we did a 3 song preview in march, but
we're ready to roll it all out tonight.

the band features the debut of ken friedman (wxyc music director '76 -
'85 and tobacco a go-go blue / mold records archivist) on drums.
jamie mclendon (siddhartha, dom casual) on bass and vocals.
pete gamble (psuedes, secret service, killer filler) on guitar.
andy fekete is on guitar.

i was intending to do a 20th anniversary gig back in '97 (i found this
archived post below), but things just worked out better a decade later
with the right people. amps do furnish a room choose a record to
rehearse every sunday afternoon and play live once or twice late in
the year. no clue as to what we'll do in '08. we're just excited to be
doing this one finally.

Is this perhaps a 25th anniversary commemoration of that lp's
release?
Sounds like a wonderful idea. Wish I'd thought of it.

I propose a 20th Anniversary Television Marquee Moon lp show for
later
this year.  4 bands, two songs by  each stretched to 15 mins. Email
me
for details.
