We’re hours away from night two of Crash Safely!!
(not that we’re counting or anything….)
You can still grab tickets to see Petty Morals, Gymnasium, My Own Worst Enemy and Tsunami of Sound with hosts Cotton Candy, and make plans for winning that autographed Bruins puck.
You’ll need a strategy for that, seeing as the Midway staff happen to be big Bruins fans…
See?
We’ll see you tomorrow night!!!!
Maybe you heard that Petty Morals are up for a couple of Boston Music Awards. Maybe you want to get a head start on your Halloween trip by asking Tsunami of Sound to play the Munsters theme song. Maybe you saw My Own Worst Enemy in the pages of Magnet. Maybe you stalk the members of Gymnasium (face it- we’re onto you. You’re stalking Rod right now, aren’t you?). You know they’ll all be at the Midway on Friday night, right?
That’s not enough for you? Maybe you need to win things. Things like tickets for the NY Skyride. A Shake Shack gift certificate (which you can use at the one that makes your favorite french fries). A Store 54 gift certificate that you may think twice about redeeming, because it’s such a cool certificate. Photography by Pete Weiss. A gift certificate from Capital Genealogy to check out your dad’s claim that you’re descendants of the Queen of England. Tickets for two for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame + Museum that don’t expire. An ArtsEmerson membership, including two tickets to any event for free. More of a sports fan? Try your luck at winning a Boston Bruins puck signed by Zdeno Chára!
Feeling more like an auction? We’ve got that, too.
Auctions for studio time at places like Q Division, The Bridge Sound & Stage, Zippah, Peerless Mastering, Woolly Mammoth Sound, New Alliance and more.
A dinner cruise on Boston harbor with a hotel room. This one ends at 11pm on Friday……!
A 5 day/4 night Cancun vacation.
A Gibson Les Paul Future Tribute.
Want more info or to bid? Check out www.crashsafely.org!
And all of the money raised at the show goes to the National MS Society!!
The cost of admission to all of this? $10.00. Seriously! Will we see you Friday?
It’s hard to top the write up that Magnet recently did on My Own Worst Enemy, that’s for certain. Like pretty much all of the bands playing Crash Safely this year, they’ve had a lot going on, including a 7″ single that came out over the winter and Porchfest more recently. We adore MOWE, and you should too!
You can get a preview of what they’re up to by seeing them at Store 54 on 8/9. Maybe you can put in a request for this gem from last year’s Crash Safely:
Grab your tickets to see them on 10/10 at Crash Safely!
Alright, fine- It’s a yard sale, technically, and there will indeed be BBQ. Q Division’s Yard Sale is tomorrow and a bunch of Crash Safely folks will be there.
And we’ll be hungry!
I’ve been meaning to post about this for a while, now, but I just got a new computer and the monitor is, well… overwhelming. Everything I type looks like it’s appearing across the street from me, which is a little disorienting.
Go ahead, try to spell correctly!
The Q Yard Sale is a lot of fun, and at last year’s event, the fun started on the red line on my way there. While I’m not looking for anything in particular this year (in fact, I’m looking to give someone some music), I will probably leave there with some treasures. Unlike last year, I’m not in the process of moving the shows from one venue to another or changing dates. I am simply waiting for the first round of the artwork!
Should you be wanting a quick rundown, here are the details as they are today. Keep in mind these shows are in September, so be flexible with your iCal, ok? Ticket links are on the way as well for most nights. It’s not even July. I’m organized, but I’m not quite that good. Go ahead and give me some cute names for nights 2 and 4 as well.
Soon, there will be posters. Soon, there will be news of what goodies can be won in raffle and silent auction, too!
