But, the fun doesnt stop right here.  At the plunge, make sure you check out the Rams Head Ice Lodge/ Beer Garden. The tent opens at 8am and will be serving up great drinks and tons of rockin’ music beginning with Sticktime, and followed by the Eastern Shore’s favorite band, Hot Tub Limo. Then, we’ll turn things up a notch with multi-platinum rockers Fuel playing songs from their hit albums “Sunburn” and “Something Like Human” and end on a high note with high octane Celtic group The Rovers closing out the day.

Wait… did i say closing out the day? No way- The party might end at the Plunge. But, we’re moving the party to the Rams Head ( Rams Head Tavern Annapolis, Rams Head Shore House, Rams Head Roadhouse & Rams Head Tavern Savage). Stop by one of the Rams Head restaurants for the “Thaw Out” post plunge party from 4-7:00pm. Enjoy $3 Arctic Shooters, $4 Polar Bear Cocktails and $5 Plunge Bombs. WooHoo!

Good luck! And stay warm.

#Win’emWednesdays: Good old fashioned music trivia – in relation to an upcoming show at one of our venues, of course. Our winner this week was @RegularRon from Annapolis who scored two tickets to see Pete Yorn at Rams Head Live in Baltimore on July 21st. Did you know that Juliana Hatfield and Pete Yorn share the same birthday? – oh snap, you did? Don’t worry, we’ll be running contests every Wednesday so stay tuned to your twirl.

#MusicMemories: Each week we’ll also prompt you to share your memories of Rams Head shows past. The contestant who uses the 140 character limit to the best of his/her abilities will win two tickets to an upcoming show at Rams Head Live, Rams Head On Stage or Pier Six Pavilion. This week’s winner was @rickybarbie who scored 2 tickets to Reggae on the Harbor, 3 Generations of Ska at Pier Six Pavilion in Baltimore on the 19th of July. Apparently Dierks Bently made a random comment about their dogs looking like cousins?

If you aren’t already following us on twitter, you can stay tuned to all things Rams Head with @RamsHeadGroup. If you’re just in it for the show announces, pre-sale info and music news follow each of our venues at @RamsHeadLive, @RamsHeadOnStage and @Pier6.

Congrats again to @RegularRon and @RickieBarbie – we’re looking forward to next week… hmmmmm, the trivia, the challenges….

It’s a whole new world over here, thanks to one Mr. Bryan Connor, MICA design student and freelancer extraordinaire. Located within our company site, this new skin fits juuuust right.

Play around, push the buttons, wander through the blog that inspired the rebrand of the Rams Head Group.

Now, you have the opportunity to get to know your Rams Head Team authors, perhaps even hand-picking who you’d like to follow. Interested in footage from the last ‘WRNR Private Artist Showcase?’ Chances are, Wilkins caught it on the Flip. Curious about what the big yellow chicken is up to? Like Peter Parker to Spiderman, Chester always seems to have the scoop on his whereabouts. And surfing through the articles for your favorite author’s most recent post has been simplified via our very own author icons. Icons that we got to choose ourselves… yes, Mangold’s is a chicken sandwich, and if you’re already following his ‘Notes from the Bunker’ than you probably recognize that this is completely acceptable.

We’ve updated our Blog Roll and Friends as well as organized our group websites so that you can more easily navigate through the world wide web according to Rams Head. Tickets, dinner specials, Fordham’s brewing schedule, and current venue line ups are all available at the click of your mouse, right here within our blog.

Following too many friends and missed our last tweet? Know the answer to the @RamsHeadLive twicket trivia? A twitter feed is also located along the bottom, just below our ‘previous posts’.

So again, play around – have fun. Hope ya like it… and continue to keep your peepers open for aesthetic brand changes company wide. We’re celebrating 20 years here, people. ‘Bout darn time we wax, polish & shine this puppy and show you what she can really do.

Cheers,
Chester & Team Rams Head

By keeping tuned to Gomez’ MySpace page we were able to listen to their new album, A New Tide in full while they were streaming it for free for the both the day before and the day of the show. Another solid release, congratulations guys. But we had to pick one of our favorites for the blog video… to keep the positivity at a peak as we’re approaching a warm(er) spring weekend.

Myspace, Facebook, Twitter

Just a month ago we had no idea what a “tweet” was. Never knew the frustration of the “fail whale”. Thought a “twhirl” was nothing more than our favorite summer soft-serve. To think, when we first opened our doors in 1989 all communication was passed across the bar. All socializing was done within our walls, face to face.

The world has certainly changed since 1989. When Bill Muehlhauser had a thick Tom Sellick-esque mustache and was selling sandwiches and drafts out of the Annapolis Downbar, I’m sure he would’ve loved to “tweet” about Annapolis’ best Happy Hour bargain. Surely, the perfectly permed Paula would’ve loved to send a personalized “direct message” to each of her favorite fannypack-wearing patrons.

But it is now, on the dawn of neon’s revival, with ever-thinning iPods and expanding “tweet decks” that we have the opportunity to keep you in the know.

Did you miss The Hold Steady when their Rams Head Live show was featured on David Letterman? Check out the YouTube clip on our myspace page.

Did you have your picture taken with President Barack Obama at the InRNRgural celebration at Rams Head On Stage? Tag yourself in our photos and add it to your Facebook page.

Curious about tonight’s specials or what band is tearin’ it up at the Roadhouse for late night? Follow us on twitter and we’ll keep you posted daily on menu changes, drink specials, and upcoming events.

We understand, it can all be a little overwhelming and none of us are immediately accepting of change. But at some point, someone suggested that you toss out the acid wash jean jacket with bedazzled cuffs and suede fringe.

We just want to keep you on the up and up. And the beauty of these sites is that you can communicate with us right back – friends lookin’ out for friends. And at the end of the day, we’re still right here: behind the bar with a beer, poised for dirty jokes and complaints about your boss or mother-in-law.

Until then, we’ll see you in the twittersphere.
