Show Details: Project/Object With Ike Willis Performing the Music of Frank Zappa The members of PROJECT/OBJECT feel that Frank Zappa is one of the 20th Century's greatest and most important composers, and they are on a mission to bring his music to the masses by faithfully recreating the live Zappa experience.
PROJECT/OBJECT formed in the early '90s as an offshoot from an annual Frank Zappa birthday celebration that took place in guitarist Andre Cholmondeley's basement in New Jersey. As the event grew in size and popularity, PROJECT/OBJECT decided to take their show on the road, performing Zappa's music in more cities and larger venues, with a growing set list from every era of Zappa's 30-year recording career. The band strives to stay true to Frank's vision of constantly challenging the musicians and the audiences.
During Zappa's 1984 and 1988 tours, members of PROJECT/OBJECT became friendly with Ike Willis, the legendary 10-plus year Zappa vocalist and guitarist whose career with Frank began in the role of "Joe" on the quintessential Zappa album, Joe's Garage.------------------------ The members of PROJECT/OBJECT feel that Frank Zappa is one of the 20th Centurys greatest and most important composers, and they are on a mission to bring his music to the masses by faithfully recreating the live Zappa experience.PROJECT/OBJECT formed in the early 90s as an offshoot from an annual Frank Zappa birthday celebration that took place in guitarist Andre Cholmondeleys basement in New Jersey.

Show Details: Enter the Haggis Since their conception in 1996, Enter the Haggis has built an international touring and recording career based upon a unique approach to Celtic music and high energy performances. Enter The Haggis live show is a musical feast &151; viscerally dynamic, emotionally uplifting and intellectually stimulating. The bands oeuvre darts effortlessly from the trad strains of, say, The Chieftains and The Pogues to the frenetic pop of early Elvis Costello and even to the Latin-tinged spirit of the Buena Vista Social Club and beyond.

Show Details: Hayes Carll If you havent already heard of Hayes Carll, you soon will. In the three years since his self-released second album, Little Rock became available, Carll has toured relentlessly in North America and abroad (performing over two hundred shows a year), founded a successful singer-songwriter music festival on the Gulf Coast of Texas, secured a record deal with Lost Highway Records, and has even seen Little Rock become the first self-released album to reach 1 on the Americana Music Chart. Hes only getting started.On his new album, Trouble In Mind, the 32 year-old Carll navigates his way through both stormy weather and calm, sun-drenched waters with ease, emerging with songs that melt even the hardest heart in town (a feat he manages on the plaintive, world-weary Dont Let Me Fall) or heat up a roadhouse (like the ruggedly strutting Wild as a Turkey). Their impact is heightened by the fact that theyre songs born of both immersion in the works of his songwriting heroes and plenty of real world experience.&147;He evokes Townes Van Zandt lyrically, Guy Clark emotionally, Steve Earle stylistically and Ray Wylie Hubbard spiritually.&148; -Boston HeraldArtists websiteAlso Performing: John Evans BandWednesday, December 3rd, 2008 | Doors 6pm | Show 7:30pm | Downstairs LiveAdvance Tickets: Floor/Loge (Limited General Admission Seating plus Standing Room): $16 ($12 ticket + $4 processing fee) Mezzanine (Reserved Seating): $21 ($12 + $9 premium service/processing fee)Day of Show Tickets: Floor/Loge (Limited General Admission Seating plus Standing Room): $18 ($14 ticket + $4 processing fee) Mezzanine (Reserved Seating): $23 ($14 + $9 premium service/processing fee)priority seating and VIP amenities/servicePlease note:In addition to the ticket price, there is a $10 per person food and beverage minimum for all mezzanine seating at this show.
