The Bauhaus was "the" place to find just about any kind of music. On Mondays, a Ramones cover band from Cleveland showed up regularly. They were a trio consisting of a sewer worker, a construction worker and a cop -- all former high school buddies. Third Plane was on Wednesdays, and the weekend brought everything from punk to goth to every kind of rock imaginable. Intermixed were poetry nights, performance art events and always local art on the walls.<br /><br />I wish there were something like it nowadays, but everything seems so niche oriented -- we are all put in our compartments and go to our separate bars. No longer shall the various art forms mix and mingle.<br /><br />I don't know of any jazz clubs now -- there was one in the Falls for awhile.<br /><br />I was out of town the night your new band premiered. Hope to get out and see you at your next gig. Keep us posted.Village Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10299021164466991478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029962.post-75661039610096788762009-04-15T08:21:00.000-05:002009-04-15T08:21:00.000-05:00I've never heard of them, I'll check them out.
Is...I've never heard of them, I'll check them out.<br /><br />Is there an underground or avant-garde jazz scene in Akron or Cleveland? I've asked around and can't find anything. It's one of the very few things I miss about Cincinnati, which has a good jazz scene of all types.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
