Episode 14: The Gig Life, Jaxx Night Club and Local Bands

The Taking Saturn Podcast

In this episode Bou and I rap about the “Gig Life”. All the ins-and-outs gigging through your local town is surely an adventure for a local upcoming band. This episode is all about the gigs that every band goes through. We call it “The Grind” As a band you always want to play the best go possible. It’s every musicians dream. So Bou chats about our early days in Taking Saturn. Our small town had a local rock night club called Jaxx. Many national acts would stop and rock this place. We chat about the bands that played through there in the mid-2000’s. Jaxx Night Club (now closed) was a legendary local bar/club that every local band wanted to play. “It taught us how to play at a professional level..” Clubs like these are amazing and of course-times have changed. Bou also talks about how gigs have changed and the audience has also shifted in terms of attention and the willing to to go out and see live bands as well as music styles. I also chat a little about my first experiences playing first gigs and starting out from Coffee houses, parties and high schools. We announce a small show on Saturday, February 23, 2019. A small party gig to kick off the year.
