Rams Head The Blog

If you, like me, thought that today is just another Wednesday you’ve got it all backwards. Today is a perfect palindrome day – 11/02/2011 and there won’t be another one until February 2, 2020. So in honor of this historic day (and because, let’s face it, it’s fun to get down and nerdy every once in a while) we’re giving away a pair of tickets to see Bobby Long’s all ages show at Rams Head On Stage. So here’s the deal. Leave a comment with your best palindrome here, on our Facebook Page, or on twitter @RamsHeadOnStage with the hashtag #palindromeplay and before 11:11 tonight and our favorite will win a pair of tickets to see Bobby Long with Rayland Baxter  on November 13th! (We’ll announce the winner tomorrow)

Congratulations to our winner Cyndi Lewis!  Check back next week for more chances to win swag & music from Bobby Long and other Rams Head On Stage artists like Cowboy Junkies, Savoy Brown and Judy Collins!

St. Vincent WRNR Private Artist Showcase Rams Head On Stage

This is a rocking’ week at the Rams Head On Stage! Day two of the WRNR 103.1 private artist showcase (presented by Mini of Annapolis) we welcomed the psychedelic rock band, Portugal. The Man. The lunchtime performance was a stop before they head over to their sold out show at the 930 club in D.C.

The band walked around before the show and talked to their fans, and once the show started the audience was glued to their unique sound and funny jokes. The band rocked out for an hour, performing songs from their new album, “In the Mountain in the Cloud” along with random request from the audience, like “1989″ from the “Censored Colors” album. Portugal. The Man also made their second appearance at the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival 10th year anniversary in June 2011, as well as Lollapalooza in August. So, it was a great afternoon treat for them to perform here in Annapolis. And, if you haven’t check them out before, take a listen from the video and go see them in concert next time in town!
