Knights of the BlackBox

I just realized that I am only in the right speaker. Ha. This boy of mine keeps messing with the mixer. I didn't realize he panned my mic all the way to the right. So make sure you wear both headphones or at least the right one. Now about the show...

I say this every week but Jeez Louise, I keep meeting the coolest folks. I really really like these two. If you have been to a concert and enjoyed yourself, besides the band that played, and the bar that hosted the event, you should thank the local promoters. Thats what we do this week. We talk to Aaron Knight and Jme Kinser Knight of Blackbox. These two book shows and manage bands and they are two of the coolest people you could meet. We start off the show with Purple wild flower. We get into the history of these two. We talk about where they come from, how they met and how they started Blackbox. It's a very interesting chat. We talk about high school football, theatre and Hank 3. The middle track is Doug Funnie (Nerdcore) Peanuts and we get into a little hip hop and nerdcore talk. We talk about upcoming shows like the New Year's Eve show at Lola's Saloon and The Grotto featuring Purple, Animal Spirit and Panic Volcanic. We spent a little time on how great Parker Anderson is(Love you Parker), lots and lots of bands like Picnic, Lightning and Arenda Light and the closing of Embargo. Too many people and bands to tag but you should listen because there is a good chance we talked about you or mentioned your band. =)  The closing song is a special track that you can only hear here now. The song will be released in a few days but if you want to be one of the cool ones who hear it first this is the place. It's the newest christmas track from Lindby featuring Leon Bridges! Its very very good and I feel super lucky to have heard it and get to share it. Seriously this episode was fun and interesting and I know you will like it. Also Lindby!!!! They have two christmas albums out now with a third coming out this week. Make Lindby your christmas music this year you wont be sorry. Follow Aaron or Jamie for the latest and greatest shows here in Funkytown. They are truly  making the scene better than they found it. Follow  Blackbox for all the upcoming shows. Go see Lindby Dec 14 at Lolas, another show we talk about takes place on the 19th at Lolas and by all means bring in the New Year on W. 7th St. at Lolas and the Grotto. 3 things I'd like you to do.
