I know some of you are at JazzFest already but if you aren't, there is something funky to do in this city every night of the week. Tonight is Gabby La La, Kim Manning, & Bernadette @ Boom Boom Room. Then Friday night is Dj Logic @ Yoshi's followed by Vinyl @ the Boom Boom Room. And then your favorite new up and coming band: Monophonics at the Boom Boom Room on Saturday night! After the huge sell out last time they played boom boom room, I want to make special rules for the Monophonics give away: so this offer is for someone who has not seen them yet but would like to! Be the first one to email me back and tell me you haven't seen Monophonics yet and you can win a pair for this Saturday at the Boom Boom Room. The rest of you, get your tickets for $12 in advance so that you don't have to pay $15 at the door or get shut out completely!
