Buzzing Around Town

Happy February!
Happy Saint Valentine's Day! I hope everyone has been staying warm and cozy this winter. There are plenty of great shows that are worth leaving your house for. Here are just a few....

They Might Be Giants
Wednesday, February 7, 2018
The Vogue
6257 N. College Ave - 21+, doors 7 pm & show 8 pm, $25
The Vogue is celebrating their 40th anniversary this year. I've been going there (legally) for 35 of those years. I'm thrilled that they're still going strong.
I'm really looking forward to the They Might Be Giants show. I think this will be the fifth time I've seen them at The Vogue. In fact TMBG have been around for 36 years - almost as long as The Vogue.
TMBG's tagline is: Brooklyn's Ambassadors of Love. Their music is full of silliness and fuzzy feelings and the promise of a good time.





Not-for-profit director by day, music writer by night, Nora Spitznogle reviews music that happened and previews music and events around Broad Ripple Village. Nora managed CATH Inc coffeehouse at 54th Street and College Avenue for seven years. During that time she hosted hundreds of local and touring musicians, both at the coffeehouse and her home. When CATH closed in 2004 and the music was no longer coming to her, she had to wander from her corner of Broad Ripple to see what is happening elsewhere. You can find her at Second Helpings during the work day, waitressing at the Red Key on Saturday nights and prowling Broad Ripple music venues the rest of the time.
