From contributor Kris Millet:

Hi everyone. Just letting you know that No Fly List (me, Russ on bass, Reza on drums) will be playing this Monday night at Zaphod's at 9:00! No cover!

Zaphod's is a great venue to play, so we're pretty pumped about it. They do Showcase Mondays every week made up entirely of local acts, allowing them to do their thing and develop. They even record each band's performance for free!

So come on out and support some local music! Here's the little ad the bar put together:
Monday, March 29 - 8pm - *FREE* Showcase Mondays presents 
THE PANAMA
+ ORCHID THIEVES
+ THE WHEAT POOL
+ NO FLY LIST
Followed by RECAP with DJ Matty

Hopefully see you out there, thanks.

Kris

There are so many arts things happening in town tonight that it just seems like a better idea to combine them in one post than to keep posting them separately. Duplicate info will be deleted shortly.
