Weather’s warming up, nights are heating up
I wouldn’t call this a heat wave, but it’s actually above freezing outside for the first time in a while and there’s plenty of live music to be had all over Cape Ann tonight — with most of the shows early enough to bring the kids. See the full lineup here.
If you haven’t been down to the Landing in Manchester for Will Hunt’s open mike, this might be a good night. Perhaps you can ask him to reprise his big move at the beginning of this video from the Rat in 1984 (Will’s on guitar & lead vocals)

Fun Friday Night Coming Up Tomorrow – Check out the videos
Even though this is a blog — and a blog is supposed to be an immediate YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST medium — people have been telling us we should talk more about what’s happening the day after our post because they often read the posts the next day. We get it. Not everybody sits at a computer all day — and even some of you who do have bosses that want you to get some work done, not surf the web all day. So here we go:
IT’S A BIG FRIDAY NIGHT on Cape Ann with music for every taste. If you play your cards right, you can get to at least 2 live shows. Start out with Linda Amero Menage a Trio at the Franklin or Mia Chung, Elisabeth Ann Larson and Soo Bae performing all three of Brahms Piano Trios at Shalin Liu in Rockport. Then finish up with Ned & The Big Babies @ Rhumb Line. Plus there’s plenty more for nearly every other musical taste. See the full lineup here.
Here’s a video for all you piano, violin and cello players of Brahms Piano Trio No. 1 where you can follow along with the score:
And here’s one of my favorite clips (if a bit wobbly) of Ned & the Big Babies. Don’t you just love that groove! Ned is always right there with you and he’s one of those great bass players who plays bass like he LOVES it, not like he’d rather be playing lead guitar.

A rare opportunity to hear all three Brahms Piano Trios this Friday – Check out the video
This simply doesn’t happen very often. All three Brahms Piano Trios performed by three world-class artists, acclaimed for their “technical brilliance,” “breathtaking virtuosity” and “smooth and stylish” in one evening at an acoustically perfect concert hall built especially for this kind of music — and it’s right in your own backyard. Oh, and did I mention it helps support the the students of the Northeast Massachusetts Youth Orchestras? Watch (and listen to) the video to see why Shalin Liu is THE place to be on Friday if you love Brahms or chamber music or student music programs or music in general! GET TICKETS NOW!
Lots of Cape Ann favorites perform in Gloucester tonight and tomorrow. Check out the full live music listing here.

P&V’s LOL #10: Lasting change never comes until you defy authority
It’s obvious, really. Authority is the machine that defends the status quo. It’s like inertia — a body stays in motion or at rest until a force acts against it. Defiance is that force. When you look at people from all times and cultures who have brought us lasting change, defiance is the one thread that runs through their words and deeds.
Let’s start with Jesus. He was defiant at every turn. When he said, “if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also;” he was preaching defiance, not submission as some people think. In Jesus’ culture you’d only strike someone with your right hand. You’d punch or slap a peer, which would land on his left cheek. But masters backhanded slaves, hitting their right cheeks. It was an insult. So by turning your cheek to present your left side, you are defying both the insult and the authority of the master, thereby treating him as your equal. (For a more scholarly treatment of Jesus’ nonviolent defiance, click here.)
The founders of our country were defiant. One quick read of the Declaration of Independence settles that matter.
Gandhi was defiant. Using the “weapon” of non-violence, he simply refused to accept British rule.
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was defiant, exalting the practice of non-violent civil disobedience to new heights in order to bring us the lasting change that paved the way for an African-American to be inaugurated for his second term into the highest office of authority anywhere, on the official national holiday celebrated in Dr. King’s name.
Last Friday, activists posted MKL’s I Have A Dream Speech on YouTube as an act of civil disobedience defying the copyright laws that make posting his speeches illegal.
Watch this video with your kids. It’s not just a lesson in how to bring lasting change. Dr. King is one of the greatest orators of all time. His brilliantly written speeches are full of musical references, quotes from songs, poetry and metaphor — all woven into a moving piece of performance art. Dr. King’s voice is lyrical and musical. It’s like hearing a great song — as entertaining as it is profound. Enjoy!
So what’s next . . .?

Move Over Sinatra
This guy is straight fire! Sinatra, Perry Como, Bing Crosby, Michael Buble, step aside. There’s a new king of love songs.
This kid must be swarming with women of all ages just trying to get all up in his business. Panty dropper material for sure. I looked on iTunes but couldn’t find his rendition available for purchase so I might just put the audio from this YouTube clip on a loop and pipe it through the house.

If you missed Jon Butcher last night, watch this video
As we reported last night (in this post), Allen Estes joined Jon Butcher and Charlie Farren on Jon’s song Coleman Mine that he wrote for the HBO series Deadwood. Jon and Charlie performed with James Montgomery and David Hull to a sold out house at Shalin Liu. If you missed it, here’s the song from Allen’s show Local Music Seen.
You can catch the full show tomorrow (Sunday) at 6pm on Cape Ann TV Channel 12.

Music tips for this weekend that you might not know about
Chelsea Berry will be Aurelia Nelson’s featured guest on her North Shore 104.9 show Curtain Up this Sunday, Jan 20, at 9am. You don’t even have to get out of bed. Just tune your clock radio to 104.9 and set it to go off at 8:59am. Lie in bed and listen comfortably.
If you saw Jon Butcher on Local Music Seen with Allen Estes, you’ll know he’s playing at Shalin Liu tonight with James Montgomery, Charlie Farren & David Hull. As of this post there were about 15 tickets left and you can get them here. Jon may ask Allen to join him on a song they performed together on the Local Music Seen.
Another good bet for tonight is Renee & Joe @ Minglewood Tavern. Here they are at Latitude 43 for the November Berklee in Gloucester show:
As for the rest of the weekend, we honestly don’t have any idea how you’re going to choose from over 2 dozen excellent shows — and plenty of them early enough to take the kids. Here’s the complete live music lineup.
GOOD LUCK!
