Music Scene at Old Orchard Beach

Howdy,
Just came back from Old Orchard Beach and have lots to talk about. The second night we went up there, we went to this night club at the end of The Pier (I forget the name of it). Anyways, the upstairs is like a night-club with a spring break like atmosphere (it was where all the "beautiful people" go). On the first floor though is where the bands play. Now last year, one of the bands that played there did a great cover of "Freebird" (after of course Nick and I yelled it after every song). This band that was up there were older guys, so you would think they would play classics. THEY PLAYED BLINK 182, WTF!!! Not my idea of the best band to cover.

The following night, we went to a place called Club Mirage (check the DBR myspace page, they are on there). I wanted to check them out because Cocaine Tongue is playing there THIS SATURDAY! (((MONSTER TRUCK VOICE))) It reminded me of Dodge Street north in a way that their band line up and types of bands reminded me of Dodge Street. Also, if you check out Club Mirage, check out a band called "Losing Tomorrow". I shot 3 videos of them and they are now up on the YouTube page. I even got a free cd! I was about to get the cd when this girl who either worked there or was a follower of the band said I had to lick her chest to get it. That alone makes it the best free CD ever!

For those of us that don't have the money for gas, Cherry S/T is playing at Dodge Street this Saturday. Also, Nick wants to make his debut on the blogs soon (get spell check ready).
