Bear V. Rock 2011 at TT's (Photos Coming Soon)

Last Thursday night, F Nice brought the rock to TT the Bear's Place. If you are smart and cool, you were there. If you weren't there, well, then you're neither smart nor cool. However, you can clear your name by becoming a fan of F Nice on Facebook. And you should know (and be ashamed) that you missed out on an aural ass kicking by Sweet Irony, Dead Fish, Moniker, and Oilhead.

Kicking things off was Sweet Irony, a rock band hailing from Boston, and they wasted no time in setting the tone for the night: rocking the crowds' face off. Their set included a cover of “Roxanne”, need we say more? Check out Sweet Irony on facebook and myspace.


Deadfish was second on the bill, and mellowed every one out a little. Deadfish's sound is influenced by Sublime, however they bring their “east coast attitude” to their tunes. They self describe their music as “melodic and upbeat” and we couldn't describe it any better. Deadfish can be found on facebook, and on Reverb Nation.

Moniker is an alternative indie rock band, that has a sound described as "ethereal sonic story-telling; with U2's rhythms, Radiohead-like melodies, Pink Floyd sensibilities, and a necessary dose of irony." The writer doesn't exactly know what “Pink Floyd sensibilities” means, but she does know that the crowd was digging it as much as she was. “Like” Moniker on facebook, or add them as a friend on myspace.


Finishing us off, was Oilhead. Oilhead was good. Energetic. It was lovely to see a lady rock out like that. Lead singer, Britty Glitter, is a petite and fiery woman and held her own amongst the rest of the talented band (girl power, yay!). Perfect way to end the evening. You can find Oilhead on facebook and myspace.

Deadfish Rocked All Asia, More Shows Coming Up This Week!

This past Saturday was humid and hot, but inside All Asia Deadfish kept things cool as a part of F Nice's all ages show. This shining young group is from Littleton, Mass and their style is reminiscent of Sublime with reggae, rock, and dub influences.
The band is currently working on their first full-length album and rocked All Asia with some brand new songs, one of which they had just finished minutes before playing.


Despite a scarce crowd, Deadfish played a great set and looked awesome doing it with their glittering instruments; Rapper T-buck was featured in a few of their songs, keeping the sound tight and upbeat. You can see Deadfish at one of their upcoming show July 11th at the Comcast Center (myspace.com/deadfishlittleton).



The live music is continuing this week and through the weekend with another Scum of the Earth show tonight and a great lineup tomorrow night.

Thursday June 24th at McGann's is sure to be a mouth watering show and features:

Dadfight!
The IZA
The Black Ayahuasca

This show is 21+, $8 at the door and $5 for pre-sale tickets which you can purchase here.
