Re: Beantown Bound/Spurs
The Spurs are my pick for best band in the Boston area. Bostonians - don't miss 'em. Last time they played the Midway, people were dancing that I'd never seen move a muscle before. It was a strange roadhouse scene. John Tom Smith wrote: Evan wrote: I was wondering if anything interesting (twang or otherwise) was going on this weekend. The Spurs, a Western swing band, are playing at The Midway in Jamaica Plain. Haven't seen them, but have heard they're big fun. I'm coming to town to pick up some drums, so I'm goin'. Tom Smith

Not only are they great musicians, the band is great fun. They don't play out that often, it's definately worth the trip. Just so you know, you need a car to get to the Midway. Or take a taxi. It's not in the best part of town. people were dancing that I'd never seen move a muscle before. It was a strange roadhouse scene. I think John was actually one of those non-dancers dancing at my last Spurs' show. I always complained that the men in Boston never danced. Well, they don't appear to dance in Nashville either. marie

[Matt Benz] Let me guess: they stand around, holding a beer, staring at the band and nodding along. It's the guy thing to do.

Up until the last, folks like Sleepy LaBeef could get me out there for four or five hours. And I was hardly alone. You must've just been going to the wrong shows. Bob
