Explore UT – The Tower
The University of Texas Tower is almost always in view as you stroll around the campus. Today’s added bonus was a great steel drum band to send you off to the Caribbean.
Elephant Room
The Elephant Room – “Cool Jazz in the Basement since 1991”, and tonight was no exception. A fun time was had by all.
MAPJAM – Rattletree Marimba
I wasn’t a very good MAPJAM participant today. Too much stuff going on. KUT offered up 9 great bands in 4 awesome venues, and I only caught two bands. My favorite today was Rattletree Marimba – a super fun band that “plays high energy fully acoustic music from Zimbabwe on GIANT wooden xylophones.” If you see these people in your area, be sure to check them out!
Michael Schneider
This Solo Piano Recital was nothing short of amazing. If you ever have the opportunity to see Michael Schneider, please take advantage of it. Plus if he has his very own page-turner, you know he must be awesome. 🙂
Excessive Noise Concert
In the spirit of trying something new, I attended the Excessive Noise Concert in the Fine Arts Library at UT. It was fun, and all the musicians were great!
Elysium – Voltaire
Armadillo Christmas Bazaar
I checked out the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar this afternoon. I enjoyed the live music from the Jitterbug Vipers and all the eclectic arts on display. This is the 39th annual Christmas Bazaar, and I recommend it for finding that one of a kind Christmas gift for someone special.
Frankie Moreno
I was thrilled to find out that Frankie Moreno still had his show in Vegas. If you are nearby, you have until Saturday night to catch him. After that, he is on to bigger and better things. He can sing, dance, play the guitar, play the harmonica, crush the piano, get the crowd involved, pass out free bottles of champagne, and flat out entertain like no other Vegas performer.
Invincible Czars
And the winner for the most fun band of the night is the Invincible Czars! They played the best renditions of songs from The Nutcracker. Check them out as they are super fun to watch.
