Cusses, Big Jesus, and HOTPLATE at The Jinx – photos

So this was one hell of a lineup at The Jinx. We’re all stoked that Cusses are kicking ass again, Big Jesus is getting…uhh…big, playing Bonnaroo, appearing on Adult Swim, touring with The Sword and Thursday, and HOTPLATE, well, HOTPLATE…

Totally Worth It Show: Surfer Blood and COEDS tonight (10/11) at The Jinx.

Hey guys, just a quick reminder that there’s an almost certainly great EARLY (don’t say I didn’t warn you) show tonight, Wednesday, October 11 at The Jinx. West Palm’s Surfer Blood are finally coming through town. I caught them opening…

Statts Fest Goes Bananas is Saturday, Statts Pre Game was a blast – pics

Statts Fest Goes Bananas II is Saturday, beginning at 3 o’clock, at the always awesome Grayson Stadium and you should go. Take the wife, the husband, the kids, grandma, your kinda weird uncle, take everyone. A great lineup of local…

Cray Bags at Weekend Mania – photos

Here’s a photo gallery of the last Cray Bags show for the foreseeable future. I am unwilling to say last show ever, because that would be a damn shame, as they were (are?) one of the most powerful bands Savannah…

10 (super lame) reasons not to go to the Wimps show at El Rocko tonight. (Thurs. 6/22)

Tom’s Savannah Stopover 2017 – photos

Well, I made it through another festival, even though I Stopoverdid it opening night. I think I’ll do this random factoid style… Enjoyed 31 bands over the 3 nights. Staying in a loft over Hang Fire feels a little wrong…

30 odd Savannah Stopover memories
