Rave N Rage – Live Music for the weekend of 5/16/2019

Hey CYY Freaks! It's been a little while since we've done one of these - I've been away on and off for the past few weeks. So, let's not waste any time and dive right back in! Here are some cool shows to scope out this weekend:

THURSDAY MAY 16th

Raffi Der Simonian w/ Emilia Dahlin (New Album – LEAP)
Portland House of Music (Portland)
7:00pm Doors / 8:00pm Music
$10 Advance / $15 DOS
21+
- Raffi Der Simonian is a damn good songwriter, and we've been patiently waiting for him to put out another record. Our hopes are being answered with the release of "LEAP" on Thursday night at Portland House of Music. Pick up a copy while you can!

Getmo, The O’Harrows, Sonic Libido, Zesty
Empire (Portland)
9:00pm Doors / 10:0pm Show
$5 Tickets

- If you're looking for a good marriage of Funk and Ska for an evening, this show has you covered. The opportunity to catch all 4 of these acts on one bill doesn't come around often, so jump on it!

SATURDAY MAY 18th

Abertooth Lincoln w/ As Friends, Osima, Random Ideas
Geno’s Rock Club (Portland)

Draw the Line w/ Neon Gypsy
Mixer’s Nightclub and Lounge (Sabattus)
8:30pm Music

- Aerosmith is one of those acts that's really hard to cover well, but draw the line have both the sound AND the vibe of this act down. Playing with them is Neon Gypsy, an emerging rock act that we're really digging.
