\n2015 Will Rock!

\"Big<\/a>We’ve wrapped up 2014 and we\u2019re looking forward to what Ventura\u2019s music scene will bring in 2015.\u00a0 I always love meeting new people, shaking hands, kissing babies and getting generous hugs from fellow music lovers.\u00a0 Ventura has about the coolest vibe going whether it\u2019s catching a national touring act at the Ventura Theater, or attending a live show with visiting and local acts at Bombay\u2019s, Squashed Grapes or Discovery who by the way welcome hometown big shots Big Bad Voodoo Daddy on January 23 in celebration of their one-year anniversary.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s new management at the Hong Kong Inn. They\u2019ll continue to offer the Polynesian Review on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 then a live band to follow at 9:30. \u00a0This month they\u2019ve lined up Smokey and Friends, Martin and Macias, Teresa Russell, and Jodi Farrell.\u00a0 The shenanigans of The Velveteen Band will now hold down the fort the first Friday of the month at Bombay\u2019s; however in February they\u2019ll be rockin\u2019 on the second Friday, Friday the 13th<\/sup>, which seems apropos.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that Billy O\u2019s will be closing their doors at their current location as the new hospital takes over the city block; but I\u2019m assured they are looking for a new location. This town needs Billy O\u2019s and the punk shows that come through there, not to mention those big ass pizzas!\u00a0 Sorry to hear that Mute on the Floor will be holding their final show Sunday, January 11; but what an amazing line up with the day starting at 1 pm with The Dictators NYC, Motor 666, Stalag 13 and at least eight more bands. \u00a0Best wishes to Joel Perkins who will continue to be a force to deal with, just in different avenues promoting his bands.<\/p>\n

Not only does the Tavern offer up Metal Wednesdays, but on Saturday, January 10 if metal is your brand of rock, you won\u2019t want to miss New Year\u2019s Metalution with Ruthless, Heretic, Six Pack of Doom and Raiju.<\/p>\n

Hi Hat Entertainment welcomes Kim Simmonds and Savoy Brown to the Ventura Beach Club on Friday, January 16.<\/p>\n

Since the Ban-Dar called it quits so many years ago, we haven\u2019t had too many country bands to support, so it\u2019s way cool that Willie Nelson and friends are playing the Ventura Theater February 4, but bands like Highway Starr, CRV and now a new band on the scene, Pull the Trigger are giving country music fans a reason to get out of the house!<\/p>\n

I spoke to JD Drury about Surf Rodeo and it\u2019s been written in ink\u2026well, make that \u201cwritten in the sand,\u201d that this year Surf Rodeo will inhabit lower Seaward and the beach for two days July 11 and 12th<\/sup>. \u00a0JD promised he\u2019d keep me in the loop as soon as bands are announced later this spring, but do mark it on the calendar and plan to be a part of this two day family oriented music and surf event.<\/p>\n
