**Weather Report**
“Think it’s cold now? Well it’s about to get colder. Omaha, Nebraska gonna throw a cold shoulder. Highs in the 20s, lows in the 10s, run outside and collect all the hens… And eat them.”
Pick of the Week
My dear pal Patrick and his band Punch Clock Martyrs, what you need to know about them is that they are really flippin’ good alright? I finally got around to seeing them about a month ago and I was really impressed by the hooks and songwriting and overall fun energy this band brings. It’s like workingman’s punk, with some of that strange Omaha water mixed in, and some POP. I dig it and I think you will too.
Those other two bands are probably great too, so this is where I’ll be tomorrow night. I’ll be the guy dressed as a banana. See you there.

Sullivan’s Bar – A Touch of Class
If by class they mean getting ripped up on a few brewskis and wildly screaming my songs on the karaoke stage then call me Fred Astaire. It’s Sullivan’s Bar in Blackstone, folks. And it rocks. It’s got karaoke with Shafeeq, it’s got beer. And it’s our feature this week.

Fun fact: While the 18th Amendment made the manufacture, import, and sale of beer, wine, and hard liquor illegal, Prohibition did not make it illegal to actually drink alcohol. It was “bottoms up if you could get the hooch in your cup”. Via Strandmag
