Speed dating with local music bands

Posted at 4:10 PM on January 23, 2007 by Christina Schmitt

Last fall, the guys from the local music list serv, minnieindie@minnieindie.com, hosted a local music showcase at the Hexagon Bar, where 25 bands played 8 minute sets -- a show made for folks with short attention spans or those who wanted to get a quick primer on local bands. Good times.

Well, now the Minnie Indie guys have expanded that idea into two nights at two different venues: Tonight's installment is at the 331 Club in NE Minneapolis; the second, this Thursday at the Hexagon Bar. See complete details below. See you there.


====> TUESDAY JANUARY 23 @ 331 <====

{ 8 BALL UNPLUGGED --> 23 ACTS/8 MIN EACH }
