Tucson-Based Bands/Musicians wanted for local live shows

| FOR A GREAT LOCAL PUB...CLICK HERE!!! |
As a local writer here in town of a local blog LIVETUCSONLIFE I come in regular contact with a lot of the local business owners namely bars and pubs. And while writing on most of the bars that featured live entertainment, I noticed something ironic...The bars had trouble finding local bands and musicians to play their stage(s) on a regular basis.
The managers and owners of most of the bars where willing to hire live music to give their bar a nice touch, more of a local feel. Only they had no where to go contact the local bands/musicians or get a taste/sample of their music.
So this is a call formally to local artist ready to perform. If you have a nice sound and would the opportunity to perform live on stage and would like more info e mail: thegoldentoken@gmail.com. Let us know just how unique your sound is and hopefully we can get you in a local Bar or Pub so that the rest of Tucson can have a chance to hear your one of a kind music, live!
Working with so many local Bands and Bars seems only natural to pair the 2 together. So contact us let us know what kind of music you play and just how loud you want to play it! Some of the bars have their own sound equipment while others may not. So having your own set up would be a big benefit indeed.

Friday Night Live At Pearson's Pub
Well it finally happened... The
Band played their “Preview” live performance to a packed house
and it was a blast! I learned of an entirely new drink called
Fireball, Fire shooter something to that effect (shows just how
effective they actually were)! I learned possibly of one pf the best
cooks in Tucson as he made me the best Cheeseburger I've had in a
while.
The actual performance went great
with the music coming across nice and even throughout the Bar. The
songs were nice and fresh with the live feel I soon realized why they
did in fact bring their own equipment to play on, they knew it!
The Band did in fact play a nice mix of songs from several genres
including Rock, Country and a little bit of Blues. The 3 Guitar set
went really well with the “Super Set” of Drums being owned by
Tony “The Animal” on every note. To me it all seems to come
across as nice and tight with everyone in since...you could tell
immediately that there was a lot of time and energy put into this
band's performance, they took themselves seriously and so did
everyone else in Pearson's Pub last night.

The overall atmosphere within the bar
itself was great, the outside was a really nice touch to the whole
scene. As you could a t times simply go out and grab a breath of
fresh air in between sets. Perhaps the the most interesting part of
the night for me was the young lady I happened to sit next to and
order my 1st drink. I found the Yellow shirt she was
wearing most interesting for some reason and wanted to know why she
wore it, so I asked her. I'm glad I did turns out she'd combined 2 of
the most interesting professions into her own personal lifestyle, as
a writer I'd hit the Jackpot in terms of interesting people with
interesting personalities, This was Barb Nichols (see card) Tucson's
only Game Show Host/DJ (see
flyer) turns out in the all irony she's performing right here at
Pearson's Pub tonight at 7 P.M. sharp! For more info click over to
her website and take a look http://gotmusicentertainment.com/ .
***For a nice overall look at exactly what Barb does I suggest looking at her "About" page as it does a very nice thorough job of explaining both her and her services. To get a quick look at it simply CLICK HERE.

She
explained why she wore she the Yellow shirt, which quickly led to a trivia
question now I was having fun
(Alex Trebek, is one of my favorite people) which I got wrong
(alcohol) but it generated a good laugh and we got to enjoy a nice
drum solo by Tony “The Animal” that rocked the entire bar!!! and
finally was kicking enough it even got a few people to get up and
dance! The band was playing a good rhythm to a good crowd. there was food, drink and live music...seemingly there was no choice but to be merry! I took a few more trivia questions as I had a few more of these "Fire" situations in the form of a Shot! I sat a while longer talking to Barb engaged in the most interesting of conversations and was even invited back tonight to partake in the Trivia Game Show scheduled to take place tonight, at Pearson's Pub. Apparently after the Trivia Game Show Barb is going into DJ "mode" and will then start Jammin' some tunes for us all to enjoy...So come on out tonight and participate in the Trivia Game Show meet Barb a truly awesome person, have some fun meet some new people and listen for a Siren in the process!!! And don't forget to leave room for a Cheeseburger, the cook is awesome!!! See you there tonight

A great example is the January 30th reading by the well-renowned author Tan Lin. Lin author of more than 10 books will be making a personal appearance at the Poetry Center. Scheduled to read from his book followed by a Q & A session and eventually concluding with book signings. A great opportunity to learn 1st hand valuable information directly from an established successful author like Tan Lyn.
