Couple photos I took at The Little Rose near #Cleveland that I realize I never posted on here. Slugg is a great noise band, I've been to a couple of her shows now and am hooked. YumaBlue is another band that was there that night. Not pictured because of the image limits in mastodon, but also played that night, are The Honeybee band and Andy Erb
🎸 Ah, the eternal question: why do #bands keep playing without fame or fortune? Because someone has to satisfy the world's insatiable craving for obscure garage concerts and late-night dive bar performances! 🎤 Spoiler: It's not for the money, it's for the glory of playing to a dozen people and a bartender who’s only half-listening! 😂

Holy mackerel.
"The nationally heralded Palmer’s Bar, one of Minneapolis’ oldest dive bars where the music is loud and the drinks are cheap, will close in September after 119 years, according to a surprise Facebook post late Wednesday night."

I’m sad to see this. Palmer’s truly was one of the best bars in Minneapolis, but they had a long run.
My local bar is called Como Tap. I spent some time a while ago getting some history. Of the place. It was first Seaborn and Hagey’s Tavern in 1934.
Today I found the oldest photo I’ve seen. This is from, 1966. Spprtsmens Inn is between Kloss’s Grocery and the Buffington Barber Shop. Today, Como Tap occupies all three spaces.

Racket on dive-bar fenestration in Minneapolis—
'It's an architectural feature that has aged itself into being trendy again: the glass block window. They’re the perfect solution for when you want to let a little light in but don’t want a window that something (or someone) can be thrown through. Once I started noticing glass block windows, I started to see them everywhere. Some of the better ones are even pretty, in a “default desktop wallpaper starter pack” sort of way.
'The rules: I’m only including dive bars in Minneapolis that are open at the time of publishing, and I’m only ranking them by their glass block windows. (Want to rank glass block windows in St. Paul? You know what to do.) I’ve probably missed some places and it’s possible I’ll be wrong on some stuff, but if you’ve read this far, I’ve already won—we have your click.'

I love this funky little place in the middle of nowhere. This is the original Owl Cafe that served those working on the first atomic bomb (Trinity is just 20 minutes away). Get the green chile cheese burger. It’s 👌

Liking dive bars and also liking "fancy" cocktails (at least by dive bars' standards) is not always the best combination.
Who TF puts simple syrup in a Manhattan? 🤯😝
My gig tonight with Tom Hood and the Tropical Sons is canceled on account of cold — while the venue has a roof, it’s pretty much open-air, and it’s going to get chilly (by Florida standards) this evening!

The accordion (and keyboard instruments in general) is my backup plan for when this “computer” fad blows over. Come see the backup plan live at JolliMons Island in Clearwater this Tuesday evening!
