Up coming shows, LU in the summer, & so much more
As you all have probably seen, we have quite a few shows coming up in the next month. I’m super excited about them & I hope all of you can at least make it out to one. Head to our LU events link & check them out!

Summer is just around the corner, & I am beyond happy about the warm weather! As far as shows are going to go for the summer, I’ve decided to take a little step back on the bigger venue shows, & focus on the house shows going on in the area.
My main reason for wanting to take a little step back from venue shows is that, lets face it, summer shows don’t do so great in attendance. In the summer, there is just so much more to do than in the winter, so many other shows & music festivals like BLED Fest & Warped Tour going on that all of you attend & would rather spend your money on. So instead of putting on a handful of summer venue shows that aren't going to get a ton of attendance for the bands & that are just going to lose money, I only plan on having 1 big venue show this summer. That show will be at the end of the summer, so keep on the look out for that!
So now on to the house shows. As a lot of you already know, I run a house show venue called The Yaga House, & I have shows there from late spring all the way until right before everyone goes back to school. Last summer I had about 5 shows & they were awesome, but as for this summer goes, I will only be having about 3 maybe 4.
So far the only set in stone dates for The Yaga House are: Friday May 1st & Friday June 19th. Look out for those show announcements, as well as the tba dates!
There are a lot of you putting on house shows & such as well, & that rules. Especially those lineups that have bands that none of us have really heard of. I am really looking forward to finding more local bands to put on LU shows.
Because so many of you are putting on shows this summer, I want to make sure that no one is stepping on each others toes as far as dates go for this area (Howell, Brighton, Fowlerville, Hartland, Pinckey, etc). So just keep each other updated & communicate. We want local music to bring us all together & we need to work with each other on that.
Also, Just because I myself am not putting on a show does not mean that it can’t be posted on LU sites. I want attendance at your shows as much as mine, so if you’re throwing a show please please please send me the show info & flyers so that they can be promoted by the Livingston Underground.
There will be another Livingston Underground Meet up ( LU meeting link ) before the Hung Up show @ The Howell Opera House on 4/4/15. Everything I've talked about above will be talked about more in depth, as well as a lot of other stuff.
I really want to make these LU meetups a regular thing every few months, just so that all of you can hear from my mouth directly what I have going on. Aside from me talking at these meetups, they are open for anyone to say something. So if you have an idea or anything to say, feel free to share it! *These meetings are not for discussing personal issues with me or anyone else though, so please none of that.*
I’m very excited for the months to come & for LU in the summer!
Hope to see you at an upcoming show!
