Duluth’s Music Scene

lakevoice Mar 30, 2011 2 Comments

Have you ever wondered why there are so many bands and musicians in Duluth? What is it that makes bands like Trampled by Turtles, Low, and Charlie Parr call Duluth home? Visit LakeVoice News and See it, Hear it, and Read it first.

We just added a new “Music” tab that we will keep adding to every week to talk more about the Duluth music scene and it all leads up to the grand event of the Homegrown Music Festival. Over the course of the next few weeks we will continue to post more stories, pictures, and videos about local bands and musicians.

If you are a local musician or would like to see a band/musician get covered in our weekly news website please email us at lakevoicenews @ gmail.com.

It’s two…two…two boats in one!

Andrew Slade Mar 30, 2011 2 Comments

Remember the old Certs commercial? “It’s two!…two!…two mints in one!” We have our own version of that, except it’s 100o feet long. The Presque Isle, which left Duluth this morning, is two boats fixed together. Read up about more Presque Isle factoids and trivia.

This should be quite easy considering its location. I still find it interesting though.

LakeVoice News is looking for recent photos from around the Duluth area that we can showcase in our weekly news publication. They can be of anyone or anything, but all we ask is that it is from the area. We also ask that you write a short caption for the photo that explains where the picture was taken, who is in the picture, what is going on in the picture and who took the photo.

To submit your photos you can email them to lakevoicenews @ gmail.com and an editor will get back to you as soon as possible if we decide to publish it.

See it. Hear it. Read it.

More Tweedy for Less Bucks

Jeff Tweedy @ Bayfront Park, Duluth, MN - Photo by Richard Narum

Problem: Too Many Tweedy’s

I have too many Jeff Tweedy tickets than required. The show is tomorrow (Tuesday, March 29), 7:30pm in Rochester, Minn.

Solution: I am offering the tickets at nearly half off … say, $25 each … for the best music related haiku (as judged by Paul Lundgren).

Haiku entries accepted until noon on Tuesday, March 29.

In Need of Rakes (again)

TimK Mar 28, 2011 5 Comments

It’s that time of year where I’m in need of your retired steel-tined leaf rake. It cannot be plastic or bamboo- it must be steel. I chop the tines off for thumb piano keys and I need a whole lot of them for a music program/workshop I’m doing later in the spring. If your rake is missing all but one of it’s tines, I’ll still take it. You can contact me through yelling loudly or the internet thingy.
