Issue 44 — October 15, 2022
From out of the shadows night, a stranger appears. He carries a small knapsack and a guitar case. From out of the knapsack he pulls a mic and a cable. He plugs in the mic and adjusts it just so. His guitar goes to eleven, and it's an acoustic. He was the subject of The Who's immortal classic Who Are You? Indigenous People have a day honoring him. His tour rider calls for White Castle and total silence in his dressing room. He is Mark Zeus and he is coming to a joint near you.
Wed. November 9th 8:00PM
Mark Zeus & Friends perform at one
of their favorite night spots. If you can't find what you
need in this place, it is because they have it in the backroom
and have not brought it out because you don't need it quite
yet. We're going to be playing an exclusive set of songs that
should have been hits had it not been for independent record
promoters who didn't know a good thing when they had it.
We're going to be playing all the songs Big Radio doesn't want
you hear. This place has a dance floor. Use it responsibly,
and by that I mean get your thang on.
We played here
last July and now they are having us back, which means they
either must like us, or they have us confused with someone they
like. Either way, it is good to be liked. This place serves up
a decent menu, so bring along your appetite as well as your
inimitable personality that makes the you you are so infinitely
unique. Your Serial Number is 1, and there will never be
another quite like you.
.
So, that is about the long and short of it. This is the kind of entertainment the mainstream media do not want you to know about, and the major labels are not smart enough to market effectively. But you are hep and, as always, a valued member of an elite club of music aficionados who are given the inside skinny on where the cool gigs are located. So feel free to pass it on to the other cool people you know, and we will see you Where and When we can.
