Will Burlington's music scene be the same without BMJ's favorite musical agent provocateurs, one can allow thoughts to get expansive in wonder. What is hard and fast fact however, is these guys know how to throw quite the farewell concert. If you weren't amongst the fire code exceeding throng that turned out despite the single digit temperatures, consider yourself lucky, for our professional level videographer captured the boozy beerlight proceedings, as Herb, Max, and Frank -and a Martin shaped hole were Martin should have been- displayed their chops, their beleaguering wit, and their wide legged rock stances one final time. Opening acts Missy Bly, Swale, and James Kolchaka Superstar laid the laurels on thick in toasting the Jazz Guys, the venues they were banned from, the hearts they broke, and the sweaty masses they rocked.
At this point you've probably assumed the righteous warfare BMJ wages against overpriced shows, trustafarian bullshit, and the inane booking practices of certain venues has -after 69 rock hard posts- subsided. But, no our armies are amassing on the border! You've probably taken to going straight to Angioplasty's site. And who could blame you, Nick does such an incredible job. But there is something exciting in on the horizon! Watch this space.
