Boat gig again?

I'm going to try again to see Binky Tunny and the Farmland Chokehold on the Iroquois this coming August 1st. They were rained out in June 7th. This time, I don't think that there will be a torrent of rain flooding the entire city of Milwaukee area.

The Chokehold will be playing for about 90 minutes, and they have a special acoustic show prior to their set.

Milwaukee, didn't even blink after Summerfest ended. New show annoucements have been coming out. Old School gigs like The Eagles, and Springsteen are coming up. Newer bands always fly under the radar here, but check out the Turner Hall listings for the best new acts.

Nuna and Crumpler

I stopped by the Brat Stop to see two Milwaukee bands. Crumpler, (in the men's room the poster was misspelled "Crumbler", headlined. They have a tight drummer for sure. In fact, the three-piece band is altogether a group of talented guys. Their set was short, but solid. Nuna played a bit longer, and their band includes a keyboard player who smokes while playing. That's a mystery to me. Is it a bigger rush to smoke and play a song at the same time? In between those two bands there was Binky Tunny and the Farmland Chokehold. It was Binky's birthday. That is the same day as the pope, and she mentioned that a number of times throughout the high quality set. Binky managed to get a drunk fan up to sing "meows" for a song called Pussycat. Her DD friend just stared. The Brat Stop has great food, a nice bar staff, and it's a huge place! I stayed sober the entire night, so the coppers had nothing on me, should they stop me on the way home to Milwaukee.
