Summer Events 2009

[Lynds]

it's a new event that Barleys and Downtown 36 put together...together. It will feature local music (rock / alternative) and 2 to 3 regional bands and hopefully 1 or maybe 2 national bands.
It will be located between Downtown 36 (N. Phelps and W. Fed) and Barleys (Market - W. Federal) Joe at Downtown 36 is extremely excited. Barleys and Downtown 36 attract a similar age demographic, in my opinion the music scene is a bit different between the two establishments. I'm hoping that this event will introduce the Barleys patrons to Downtown 36 and vis a versa.
