The Brunettes
Where: Middle East
Date: 2007-10-01 21:00:00
Type:
Coy, cute, cutie-pie, hoochie-pie, coochie-woo, woochie-candy-poo. These are, more or less, all terms that New Zealand band The Brunettes have been denying and simultaneously inviting their entire career. Jonathan and Heather met when their respective bands played a show together. They began creating boy/girl melodrama pop inspired by 70s New York punk and 60s girl groups but created in an Auckland scene of opiate-infused garage rock 'n' roll.

Singer/songwriter and percussionist Vinx plays soulful music with international flavor.
Ra Ra Riot

Ra Ra Riot is an amorphous blob that consists of six highly dedicated individuals, each bringing her/his own experiences as both people and musicians to the metaphorical table.
Subtle
Where: The Middle East (upstairs)
Date: 2008-05-21 20:00:00
Type:
Subtle are a sextet from Oakland, blending metal undertones with hip-hop and more. Based in Pittsburgh, Black Moth Super Rainbow has been around since 2002 and features an all analog sound, something like happy fuzzy pop and extremely psychedelic Krautrock. The songs are written from a folk perspective so the music never feels overly electronic and never sterile.
OpenCoffee Club
Where: Andala Coffee House
Date: 2008-04-10 10:00:00
Type:
Fellow web entrepreneurs and VCs gather once a week in Boston to grab some coffee, free WiFi, and chat about what's new. Around the world, tech entrepreneurs and investors are meeting regularly to drink coffee, network and hopefully do deals. No more of the old-school "please send us your executive summary before we'll even talk to you". A place to find opportunities. Where and when is it? Held every Thursday morning from 10am-12pm at Andala Coffee in Cambridge. Why? Well, one of the things I've heard repeatedly is: 1. investors are inaccessible 2. entrepreneurs need regular physical space to meet, not just each other but also also network with investors and corporates We all get an enormous amount from informal contact with both entrepreneurs and investors. On OpenCoffee: "What really stood out for me this week was the feeling of people clustering into short meetings and really getting work done. OpenCoffee is deliberately during the day to encourage real professional networking rather than social networking - so the vibe of people getting things done and making connections is really excellent."
