initial post + Akron/Family w/ Julie Doiron and Shotgun & Jaybird tonight

sackville is getting bigger. too big to fit into the small town that it occupies. we knew this when sackville was suggested as a possible "new montreal" on last week's CBC Radio 3 podcast. therefore, it only seemed fitting that sackville, with its burgeoning music scene, should find its way onto the interweb. that is why this has been created, primarily as a resource for the denizens of sackville who happen to be interested in music, but also for others who happen to be interested in great music but don't live in sackville.

which brings me to this: George's Fabulous Roadhouse will be blessed with one of the more popular bands of the moment tonight, Mar. 24, 2006. the Akron/Family, out of New York, New York will be performing. rumour has it that the band has been known to play for up to and including two hours at some of its previous gigs, so the show starts early. a mixed set of altogether craziness fromJulie Doiron and Shotgun & Jaybird will begin at 10:00 and likely last for longer than anyone could possibly imagine. get there early to get a good seat or possibly that spot leaning against one of the pillars that everyone wants.

keep checking back.
