Photos from "The Cup Experience" concert on 4th

Here are some photos from last night's concert on 4th street with Arnett Hollow, Peter Searcy and Cabin. Last night was Cabin's last performance of the year due to the band going back into the studio to work on a new record so if you missed them last night, you're gonna have to wait a bit longer to see them again. All in all, the bands were all great but the sound wasn't so swell. What do you expect for cramming a stage on a narrow street between two high rise building and covering it with a glass lid.

I'd also like to preface the photos below by letting you know the lady in the photo to the right must have though I was with one of the papers as she demanded that I take her picture... I gratefully obliged! Enjoy.

The Cup Experience @ 4th Street Live

As you all know, this weekend starts the Ryder Cup here in the lovely Derby city. Even if you're not a fan you can at least appreciate how nuts the city is about hosting this event (I've looked at the signs for 4 years now...) and you can be happy about what it is doing for the city's economy.

Billed as part of "The Cup Experience", this Saturday (09/20) Cabin, Peter Searcy and Arnett Hollow will play a show down at 4th Street Live with the admission being free while you proudly sport your Ryder Cup commerative pin (ahh, just like a Derby event.)

The show starts at 7:30 with Arnett Hollow and is followed by Peter Searcy at 8:30 and Cabin at 9:45. This should be a great show to get a good local sampling of music into the ears of some far away travelers and locals alike. I know the wife won't let us miss Cabin and we heard a rave review about Arnett Hollow's performance at the St. Hildegrad festival last weekend and can't wait to catch the show.
