Incoming!: Sudz In The City Saturday @ The Chuck

 

SUDZPoster10-279

Ohhhh, so they finally got smart and opened up the 600 Club during Sudz In The City. Although it's VIP for another $25. Yeah, we get it, you gotta charge extra so you don't have us every drunkass douchebag stumbling around up in the club.

Bands that will be playing this year: DB & the Struggle, Super Lucky Catz, Motel Drive, On the Fly, Monkey Wrench and Annette Ash Trio.

Might be fun, might suck, either way we're glad it's still around and downtown.

[Three Day] Weekend Hangover: Baseball, Music and Beer

Three major Fresno events happened over the weekend…major to this blog, anyway.

And now, a one sentence review of 2009 Sudz in the City:

Next year, there better be more beer booths and drink tickets or a switch to the Fulton Mall, otherwise, we have no reason to come back.

Monday Hangover: Not enough Sudz in the City

Barely used stage setup
Didn't they used to give you like twenty drink tickets for twenty bucks?  It wasn't that long ago was it?  When it was held near the Water Tower, I think.  Those were the days.  Saturday, it was thirty dollars (day of) for eight little glasses of beer.  To me, what was worse: no bands of note played – sorry every blues based band in town that performed.

I suppose the thirty bones is fine if you wanted to donate to the Downtown Association anyway.  That's where the proceeds went.

The Fresno Bee's Paula Lloyd gave a great statistical rundown of Saturday's Suds in the City event – there were 4000 drinkers at The Chuck.  By the way, the Bee is damn lucky to have Paula.  I really love the stuff she writes and hope they keep upping her profile.
