As Bar Bacon Celebrates its Third Year I become reflective

     So this was the reason, and the start of Crazy Viking. This is when I first got into the promotion biz on my own I was fresh out of working at Sonar and wanted to do something fresh and different. I loved the folks at Sonar but I didn't just want to do music events. I've always loved cheap thrills and getting people together to just have a good time. As it just so happens, in January of 2009, Jim Meyer approached me about working with him to do Bar Bacon. The idea was simple; find a place where we could relax, enjoy ourselves and laugh our asses off. And wouldn't you know it the stars aligned again and along came Sam and Thomas, co-owners of Golden West Cafe offering up their space for the night. The first Bar bacon was nuts. It didn't start on time, the bar tenders were over worked, and people ended up sitting on the floor due to lack of seating. Since then Bar Bacon has had its ups and its downs but has managed to have the staying power few monthly events ever achieve. It's not perfect and it always unpredictable, and I love it.

     As we enter this third year of Bar Bacon I realize that this was the event that really started it all for me as a private promoter. Time and time again this is the event that reminds me of why I promote in the first place; to help people have a genuinely good time. Now as I look back at the past three years at Golden West, I'm blown away with all the things we've done individually and collectively as a team. I see that Bar Bacon is still at its center as a great way for people to finish a month and start a new one. We love laugh hysterically and cheering for people gutsy enough to get up there and try to make us laugh. Looking forward I can't wait to see what this year holds for myself, the Golden West and Bar Bacon. I'll be there next Friday eating Tater Tots, drinking a beer, and of course laughing my ass off. I hope you can make it too. Starts at 11pm on Friday the 28th. See you there.    
Super Friday Yeti Hugs,
Neal

JOAN OF ARC AT GOLDEN WEST

JOAN OF ARC with SOFT CIRCLE and ALGERNON CADWALLADER 1/22 @ GOLDEN WEST


ALGERNON CADWALLADER
$8.00, All ages


Over the last seven years and five albums, Joan of Arc has spanned the gamut of inconsistency. On one album they ould be lavished with frothy critical adoration, the next the band would be torn apart, barely understood, everything but spit upon. One album they would be lauded as one of the greatest American avant-garde / acoustic-electronic bands in years, the next they'd be misappropriated as "arty-emo." Joan of Arc was always dangerous ahead of the game, making albums that were as beautiful as they were confrontational; lush and jarring acoustic guitar tracks piled ceiling high, via Pro-Tools, atop plaintive vocals and sharp smattering of digitally edited arrangements. JOA was mixing Fahey, situationism, a Cassavetes fetish and Midwestern-winter ennui into an elaborate, seams-out fuck-it-all which was only truly consistent in that it was as compelling as it was baffling.

Last Night's Movie Night

Was AWESOME!!!! To sum it up here is a snip-it from last night's movie, DOG SOLDIERS....

1. Soldier: "So you're serious about this Werewolf thing?!"
Dr.: "afraid so."
Soldier: "Shit."


2. As they are pouring super glue on their commanders lacerations (while pushing his guts back in him) he looks down and says "sausages".



Hell Yes.




Thanks to everyone who came out! I'll be announcing next month's movie night today! Come and remember free movies and free popcorn.

What can I say... Dana is cool!


Hey Everybody! so our buddy Dana runs a cool booking company called Unregistered Nurse Booking. We do a bunch of stuff with her and Dana does a ton of other stuff. Occasionally you'll see me give a shout out to her so make sure to check out her site so that way you know what the hell we're talking about.

DAMAGED BLOODY DAMAGED 2 @ Ottobar


Ok So I love the Ottobar. That's no secret. It rules. Period. The owners are cool, hell the bouncers are cool (just don't fuck with them.), and the bartenders are either foxy or fast with a pour (and sometimes both Cris Cowan). There was a time in my life when I went there every day. I am stoked to get to play (in Radical Discharge) along with some of Baltimore's sickest bands for one of the coolest things that the Ottobar is epically known for. That thing my fantastic Friday people is a GREAT FUCKING TIME with LOUD ASS MUSIC!! SO COME CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!

Each band will be playing at least 1 song from both bands.

The Ottobar 2549 North Howard St.Baltimore, MD

Come on out and lets get our faces melted together.

MEAN JEANS?!?!?!?! Lo-Pan?!?!?! What the fuck?!?!

So in an effort to find pictures for Lo-Pan the top hit that I got was for Mean Jeans. Its this picture. Looking for Lo-Pan found the Mean Jeans. "No Chinese people no Chinese food." I have Lo-Mein at home and that sounds like Lo-Pan. I also have Mean Jeans at home. I could listen to Mean Jeans and eat Chinese food. The circle is complete. I want to go home.
