RTP-area local music and culture

[local506 AT gmail.com]

My resolution is to book more local bands into Local 506 and beginning
on January 13th, we are bringing back the 506 Free-For-All (nods to
The Nuge!) where you get a chance to see two local acts for free.  Our
plan is to fill more of our open nights with these shows - and
hopefully keep music blaring at 506 seven nights a week!
Bands interested in playing the Free-For-All shows should email us at
the booking address on our website (ie: do not reply to this email.)

Happy New Year...glenn
