Friday Night Performance of Borrow Tomorrow at Vogue
What are you doing this Friday night? Well, if you live in Indianapolis then you need to be heading over to the Vogue to see one of Indy’s up and coming rock bands. These guys have not played Indianapolis in quite some time but are ready to rock the house with the 80’s cover band 16 Candles.
Borrow Tomorrow is an Indianapolis based rock band that not only impresses on their polished instrumentals but also with some educated and experienced songwriting. They perform songs like Shy Away and Looking that will not only have you swaying in your chair but will have you begging to sing along. They also drop some slower songs on you like Wicker Park Suite that have front man Chris Jerles on keys. Regardless if he is caressing the keyboard or melting faces with his guitar, his voice is what makes him worth watching. His voice is not clean and clear cut like you might expect yet dirty and rusty that plays perfect into their overall sound. Throw lead guitar from Robert Newport in the mix and you have a duo that can play off each other all night long.
Keeping things in the family, Robert’s brother Andrew is behind them hiding behind the drum kit. Although you might go an entire show and never see his face you will know he is there from his intense solos and his adrenaline packed ambiance. But someone you will notice, and will remember as well, is the bass player Randall Trumbell. Standing on the side moving ever so softly to the sounds you will find him in his own little world slapping the bass with affection. Always sporting blue glasses and a sport coat he is hard to miss and impossible to forget.
Regardless of the quality of music these four guys produce, they are also some of the nicest guys you will ever meet. They make a point after every show to shake every hand and to sign every CD. These guys are some of the hardest workingmen in the business and it shows in their entire presence. So this Friday make sure you see them at the Vogue in Broad Ripple. This is a show that you cannot afford to miss.
(If you head over to the merchandise table during the show and talk with Ricky Potts (from rickyleepotts.com) and mention this article you will get a free CD.)
Choose Laser Flash for Some Fun in Indy
Early in December my son wanted to have a small birthday party with just a few of his friends. Earlier in the year we had gone to Laser Flash up in Carmel for another friend’s birthday party and had a blast.
When it was time for my son’s party we knew we were going to head back to the Laser Flash laser tag facility in Carmel.
We decided to go with their Hassle Free Party Package which turned out to be everything we needed and more. Here’s what we received with our package.
- A 40-minute SESSION of Laser Flash
- 10 arcade game tokens per player
- Bottomless fountain drinks for the players
- A gift for the guest of honor
- Coupons for the other players
- Invitations
- Detailed score sheets for all players
- Free membership for all players
- Party table and a Party Coach for two hours
- Paper plates, cups, napkins, fork, and placemat
- Cake knife
- Candles and a lighter
- Peace of mind and a wonderful time
Because my son loves sports and BW3′s we passed on having any food at Laser Flash, but if we’d wanted we could have had them supply a personalized birthday cake or even Donato’s Pizza for our entire birthday party as well.
We all had a blast with our game of laser tag and all the boys had plenty of fun with all of the arcade games available too. Our 40-minute session consisted of three different mini-games. By the end the boys were firing on all cylinders and the two adults were ready to sit down and enjoy the bottomless fountain drinks to recharge.
The staff and team at Laser Flash did a fantastic job of making sure we all had fun, knew what was going on and made it a memorable and fun birthday party for my son’s 10th birthday.
Whether you’re looking for a place to have a great birthday party with your kids, some family entertainment, adult fun with your friends or maybe even some team building with your coworkers, you should think about Laser Flash in Carmel, IN.
I-465 Tanker Explosion Slideshow
Here’s a slideshow of photos from yesterday’s semi-tanker explosion on I-465 on the northeast side.
These are some amazing images. It’s a miracle there weren’t more domino wrecks and casualties with such a blast and traffic heavy area.
I’m curious as to how much this is going to impact traffic. I think it’s going to be much more than people expect, although I heard tonight that westbound traffic on I-465 has been restored?
I’d love to hear what other people’s experiences have been. Whether you were there or close when it happened, or how your commute has been impacted since the explosion, let us know in the comments.
