Preparing for the State Street Pub Show

Now that the band is officially inside the two week window for the State Street Pub show SHED is in full show mode.  Rehearsing, writing, and learning new material have been replaced by giving undivided attention to the set list for the show. In the rehearsals leading up to a show the band fine tunes every aspect of the set in order to deliver the best performance possible.

Normally rehearsals consist of a full or partial run through of the existing set followed by work on songs that will be added into future sets.  Some of these songs are drawn from SHED's nearly twenty year catalogue of existing material and some of it is entirely brand new.  When in show mode the band focuses exclusively on the material that has been selected for the show.  Time is spent putting the songs in order and running through them just as if the band were playing live on stage in front of an audience.

The State Street Pub is located at 43 North State Avenue DIRECTIONS HERE.  Doors open at 6 pm and live music starts at 9:30 pm.  There is a $5 cover at the door.  The State Street Pub has plenty of parking both in the parking lot directly north of the building as well as ample on street parking.  You will enjoy a good selection of beers, a dining menu including burgers, fries, and sandwiches, as well as an outdoor area for patrons.

Out of the Tempest hits the stage at 9:30 pm. Check them out on their Face Book page and be sure to get to the State Street Pub early enough to grab a bite to eat and a few drinks before they rip into a killer set.

SHED takes the stage at 10:15 pm to perform existing material with some new tunes thrown in for flavor.  Be sure to take pictures and send them in to be used in the follow-up Gig Report after the show.  SHED encourages everyone to stick around after their set to hang out and have a few drinks while waiting for Old Revel Minds to get set up.

Old Revel Minds will blast off at 11:00 pm with a high-energy set guaranteed to scorch your eyeballs.  While they may be the last band of the night they are absolutely worth sticking around to hear.  If you like metal this is the band for you.

Check out the show details here and be sure to put it on your calendars.  Let your friends know and come prepared for an evening of hard rock with three amazing bands.
