LOCAL CONCERT ALERTS (Sense of Truth, Nixxon Dixxon, & Nudge)

Hey guys, I have a pile of LOCAL CONCERT ALERTS to share today, so let's not waste too much time! And remember to get details on the Upheaval of an Exorcist/Garden of Bedlam concert on October 30th, our new SMS poll, and much more, in the post immediately below this one!

Adding to an already stacked Halloween weekend featuring Absolute, Nixxon Dixxon, and Shift in Sault Michigan and the afromentioned October 30th show, is the return of Foggy Notions!!! After a 19 month-long closure, the famous local bar/concert spot on Queen Street East returns on Halloween night! And kicking off it's return that night for the opening Halloween party is local hard rock band Sense of Truth, in their first local concert since supporting Garden of Bedlam at The Canadian in July! Support will come from a Rage Against The Machine tribute band named Renegades! Can anyone help me out with details on this band? They gotta be good, I love Rage Against The Machine! I don't think they're the same band as Dysfunkshunal Kemistry...am I wrong?

This show will take place at 10:00 PM on October 31st! No word on admission price yet, if I hear something, I'll let you guys know! It's great to see Sense of Truth back on the live scene, if you can go to this show, you might as well! I can't go, (I'll be in Detroit, what horrible timing) but I guarantee this will be a show worth your time! Check out some of Sense of Truth's quality original material at their official MySpace page! Confirm your attendance for this concert at the official Facebook event page! Also, here's a fun fact for you guys: Sense of Truth guitarist Ron Baxter played at Foggy Notions' closing show on March 31, 2008 as a member of Driving Dave Home! 19 months later, he's playing at its re-opening! Well, I found that interesting!

But that's not all! Some more local concerts have been scheduled in Sault Michigan! Firstly, local hard rockers Nixxon Dixxon have scheduled a couple new weekend shows at The Dondee Lanes! (Haven't heard much for shows there lately, good to see them back too!) Nixxon Dixxon will play there on November 6th and 7th, both shows starting at 8:00 PM! As well, they're hitting the road again! They'll be in Tower, Michigan on November 13-14 for two shows at The Tower Tavern, while they'll be back in Negaunee at Rookies' Bar on December 4-5th! Great to see Nixxon Dixxon adding more shows, the more the better! But before all that happens, they'll be at The Rapids Lounge at Kewadin Casino this coming weekend, previews of which will be on the SMS later this week! Great band, make sure to hear their quality covers at their official MySpace page!

And finally for new shows, Michigan hard rock band Nudge will be back in Sault Michigan in the new year! They will hit The Satisfied Frog from February 4-6th, 2010! Following their recent trends for shows here, they will play a "Nudge-coustic" set on Thursday, February 4th, followed by two normal plugged-in sets for the other two nights! All 3 shows take place at 10:00 PM! Surprisingly, these shows are the only Sault-area stops on their 2010 touring (they have shows lined up through December), but hopefully they'll be back for more shows than just that weekend! They're a good band and well experienced, I'd say check them out if you can!

That's all for today, I shall have more news in the coming days! Stay tuned for updates! And VOTE IN THE NEW POLL!!! Thanks everyone!
