 About Us

 

Greetings from our founder, Big Blog:

  

     This is the space where we make a whole bunch of promises and huff and puff about how great we are and how what we have can't be beat and all like that. Okay,consider it done.  Now that's out of the way,  let's get down to business. What we're going to try to do here is give you the best musical coverage in the  area.  You've heard that before, I'm sure.   But we think our approach is a bit different.

      First of all, ours is a pretty good sized area. We're going to attempt to cover live music from Charlotte to Raleigh with some points inbetween and some  points farther out.  Obviously,  in an area that big, we can't do it all, but after  thirty some odd, and I do mean odd, years of chasing musical events  all over the state and writing for  a slew of publications, we think we can figure out where the best or  sometimes the most offbeat  musical stuff is lurking. Our coverage will consist of interviews with and previews of local, regional and national artists  performing in the area. We'll even throw in a record review once in awhile. Our goal is to give you an overview  of the best musical events throughout the state on a weekly basis.

     And that's all you'll get here.  We don't give a damn about politics, art, sports or anything else. Well, we do, but not in this space. It's all about music. We hope you'll like it and come to visit often.

      As you can see, we're in our infancy, and our first efforts  may be kind of rough,  but our ears are in the right place,and we hope you'll enjoy what we're hearing and talking about. Thanks for coming. Now sit back and enjoy the show.  




Loafers Beach Club presents

 JOHN NEMETH

Saturday  May 9

Loafers Beach Club

3914 Atlantic Avenue

 Raleigh, N.C.

John Nemeth sounds like the reincarnation of Little Willie John. But with Nemeth, the package is more than just incredible vocals. He’s a world class harp player as well, in the style of Little Walter. Nemeth is not a back porch bluesman.  His original tunes are rockin’ wailers with a fifties r&b feel. There’s nobody in blues or any other genre that sounds remotely likely him or has his range.  Because he’s based in San Francisco, he doesn’t get out this way too often, so this is a rare opportunity to see a world class harpist and singer at the top of his form.
