        Bid for ad placement on JaxScene

        0 comments
        Today I created a eBay listing for our top ad spot on the right. The idea is awesome because it's super affordable, bits start at just .99 cents. If you got love for us please help support by placing your ad or talk to anyone you think would be interested. For now I'm selling 2 week blocks to start with.

        Super thanks to Tom P for passing the idea to me. I never thought about doing it this way. Speaking of Tom P. what a scholar for re-continuing our classic things to do daily! I am still hashing out a calender system. It's about done but I am testing out how I'm to display it.

        Thanks for visiting! Here's a random jaxscene photo of people having a good time.

        Open Mic w/Jonah Whalebelly @ Burro Bar 6/15

        0 comments

        Click image to see the photo set. Photos by Tom P.

        Last night I got a chance to head downtown to The Burro Bar and witness their Wednesday Open Mic Night. I believe this is actually their third week doing the event and are discussing changing it from the now weekly event to once a month. The line up was pretty impressive. There were a couple guitarist doing cover songs, a few guitarist played their own material and you had a few comedians. They usually played three songs or spoke for around ten minutes. I would have to say they all did a really good job and it made for a good night. The host Jonah Whalebelly keeps you entertained in between performances by being witty or telling stories about trying to get a cheeseburger and a cold beer from the American Embassy in Pakistan and seeing two Pakistani military soldiers spooning in the back of a Humvee.
        If you are interested in going or performing I would recommend checking out their new facebook page to figure out when the next event is.
        More info on Burro Bar open mic night.

        In case you missed it...Junip @ The 5 Points Theatre 6/13/2011

        0 comments
        The 5 Points Theatre and Underbelly Productions delivered an amazing line up of talented musicians. There wasn't a moment where I wasn't overwhelmed by a feeling of gratitude for being apart of such an incredible night. Therefore, I wanted to share...in case you missed it. :)

        The line up in order of appearance:

        Katie Grace Helow

        I was moved by her powerful voice and lighthearted nature.
        Katie's Facebook Page




        Antique Animals

        They had great energy and had people dancing.
        Antique Animal's Facebook Page




        Helado Negro

        His performance and use of visuals blew me away.
        Asthmatic Kitty Records



        Junip

        I'm not going to lie...my heart nearly exploded. They were amazing.
        Junip's Facebook Page
        Website


        Junip and Helado Negro are playing @ the Social in Orlando on Thursday, so if you have the opportunity to catch the show...do it!

        Remember, in order to continue to get such amazing bands to come to Jacksonville, we have to show up when they do. Get out there and support Jacksonville!

        • Two of Five Point's best newer venues; Lomax Lodge and Underbelly, will be forced to close shop and move due to neighborhood noise complaints. You can read more with the Folio Weekly article online. I hope there is some news on how we can make the situation better for them. You should definitely show them some love.
        • Madeleine of 'Art Isn't Rocket Science' blog post some brilliant new large-scale drawings. I recommend clicking them to embiggen. As well ToyCrusher creates the "CROMS"; Spray paint, oil, & acrylic on a wooden box. It's says sweet stash all over it. Not literally. Calm down.
        • A new FaceBook page called  Isawyou Jacksonville was created in the theme of Folio Weekly's I saw you section, so you can hook up some love. You can have them post so you can stay anonymous.
        • Tony of TheUrbanCoreDotCom posts an article about his new move in joining the keymer group specializing in public relations. He loves this place and strives to make it better.
        • BusstopMag.com posts a video of Jacksonville originating skater Nick Blanco in honor of his 20th birthday.
        • The Jacksonville 48 Hour Film Project kicks of this weekend the 17th. Scheduling and info at http://www.48hourfilm.com/jacksonville.
        • I'd like to mention Content Design Group's latest Urban Facelift Project #15. The Urban Facelift Project is where they take photos of desolate or non functioning buildings in Jacksonville and graphically mock them up to show a concept of what they can be. I'm a geek for this stuff so a long while back I submitted one of my own to them.
        • ABOVE: Haiku Birdie mentions us in 'Frog Vs Toad' comic strip. Looking forward to seeing cartoon us ha ha. It won't be as long as it takes my cat to clean the both of us, as Frog Vs. Toad flows as a story. For more goodness peep 'The Haiku Life'.

        Well some of you might already know it as The Beer or Brewery District being it's located near Bold City and Intuition Ale Works.
