The Kerry Kearney Band - Serendipity Smiles on Lulu's

My grandmother was fond of pithy bromides and one of her favorites was, "when one door closes on you, another one opens with unexpected opportunity." This time Kerry Kearney walks through the opened door. O serendipity! O musical bliss! Due to an unfortunate scheduling conflict which led to the show cancellation of Rockin' the Paradise on Friday September 18th, The Kerry Kearney Band will grace the stage at Lulu's for an evening of the blues. Kerry's musical reputation precedes him and needs no introduction to any and all who relish live blues music. He is our local musical champion of the blues who, over the years, has garnered the highest accolades such as the Bluesman of the Year, Best Guitarist and, under his direction with his band, Best Blues Band to name a few. I can wax and wane poetic endlessly about the music and Kerry's creativity, but what you really need to do is come down to Lulu's Friday night and experience the blues for yourself.

The Kerry Kearney Band Show times: 9:30pm & 10:45 pm Cover $6

See you on Friday for your live music fix!

This Is What It's All About

Last night Lulu's was fortunate to have NYC's Wonderlust drop by for a set of instantly likable energy-infused pop-rock. They played enjoyable originals as well as some contemporary (and not so contemporary) covers with the precision of a machine and the soul of a poet. In short, it was exactly the sort of night of live music that Lulu's has been striving to bring to her stage from the very start. (Yeah, that's right, Lulu's Pub is a female entity, like a ship.) We also had Bugsy Jones on the stage; they gratefully filled in for a dropout in the lineup. Fun rock covers were had by all (think ZZ Top, Lynryd Skynyrd, Thin Lizzy -- familiar stuff that gets you going.)

That was just Thursday. We've still got Friday and Saturday nights filled with more of the drug that is rock n roll. Look folks, get the little earbuds out of your ears and come listen to real music. Have you any idea how different live music sounds compared with compressed, digitized, homogenized, pasturized, freeze-dried MP3s? You think your zunepod gives you the music that can "still the savage breast"? Oh, no, sir.

Music can and does have an affect on your biology. Seriously. But not when you compact it down into a little postage-stamp-sized facsimile of the real thing. You want to feel the music coursing through your veins? You want the sound to wash over you and change you? Your only option is LIVE MUSIC.

Let me repeat: Listening only to MP3s is like trying to nourish your body with only Big Macs and SpaghettiOs. Sure, you can survive on that crap, but will you thrive on it? Hint: HELL NO!

So here's the challenge: Get your ass out to a live music venue. Any will do, though we're partial to you coming to Lulu's. Try it. See if you don't get all tingly and high off the live music alone. This is science. I won't say there's no place for MP3s (though I'm likely to say that place is the dumpster out back), but don't limit yourself. Live. Get out, get social and get a live music fix.

Music in the Pipeline @ Lulus

I was just updating the main website (www.luluslive.com) and I thought an upcoming night of Ska & Reggae was worth a special mention. Lulu's prides itself on original and diverse live music. We love live music -- rock, roll, metal, blues ... You name it and we love it.

With that in mind, Lulu's is very pleased to present a Ska and Reggae party with King Django, All Out Riot and The Scofflaws on Saturday, August 22. Mark this on your calendar and come out to Lulu's!
