Boston's ONE NIGHT BAND is Tonight
THIS GREAT ADVENTURE - It's really hard to understate how large of an undertaking tonight's event is for the participants. One Night Band has called on 40 Boston rockers from various notable area bands who will be randomly coupled up today (each group gets a drummer and a bassist - but beyond that, it's anybody's guess.)
Their Work Cut Out For Them - It's the Rock Lottery Concept: So the bands, who have not yet met, will be asked to come back on stage tonight (after only a few hours of bonding, songwriting and jamming) and be asked to perform 4 songs on stage tonight at the Middle East. (Each set will be approximately 20-30 minute set tonight.) That 4-song set will consist of 3 originals from that new band and 1 cover song. (Getting 4 people to agree on which cover song - and then to learn it, is probably the most difficult part of the endeavor!)
From Music back into Music - Exciting as this prospect already is, we are happy to relay that this is also a charity event we can get behind - all proceeds of the night will go to Zumix, a youth music education center located in East Boston.
