The Super-Plunge Challenge: Nearing the 12th Hour

It’s dark and cold but this tent is a rockin’! Whether it’s the live music and steal drums or delerium, it’s starting to feel like just another day at the beach! Ya Mon! Count those plunges! 14! That means that at some point she double dipped again?

(Old Mill Steel Drum band led by The Geckos’ Mike Miller)

What? “Brunstie” forgot her Hunters? Bummer – would’ve made for a great addendum to the Fashion Police blog.

A Rams Head Guide to Memorial Day Weekend

Aaaaaah, yes. The first long weekend of the summer.

It’s only Thursday and I find myself wandering through daydreams of frosty Margaritas and orange accompanied Hefeweizens. I can almost smell the coconut sun block and juicy burgers on the grill. Being an Annapolis local, I just solidified an afternoon ‘on the boat’ with a fine crew of both party lovers and sailors (someone’s gotta steer the thing). And although that makes the holiday weekend official in my mind, that’s just one afternoon – What in the world am I going to do with the rest of the three day mini-vacay?

For locals and tourists alike, on ‘staycations’ or weekend get-aways in our port-side province, Rams Head’s working to keep you fat, happy and entertained.

Friday, May 22nd
Start the weekend with a big, sloppy Happy Hour.
Avoid bridge traffic – you know it’s gonna be a mess – and join us (or the Rams Head nearest you) for $2.50 drafts, house wines and liquors from 4pm to 7pm. If you’ve got to pinch those pennies for the long weekend ahead, Rams Head happy hour is a good place to start. We’re serving complimentary wings to all attendees from 5-7pm.

Saturday, May 23rd

Rocknoceros, all ages kiddie matinee.
11am at Rams Head On Stage.
Attention families: Hannah Nebraska who? Coach Cotton, Williebob, and Boogie Bennie are the hot new rock stars for the under eight set. All the cool kids are in the know.

Willie Nile, w. Vandaveer
8.30pm at Rams Head On Stage
Perhaps you’ve heard WRNR‘s Carrie featuring a couple of Willie’s new tracks via Carrie’s Catch of the Day. The enthralling new Streets of New York finds the artist in his mid-fifties, his youthful energy unflagging, and never having sounded more committed to the themes he’s tackled.

Sunday, May 24th
Brunch before Boats
10am – 2pm at a Rams Head near you.
Hold on sailor! Before you head out on the seas, you’d better fill that belly. The Annapolis Benedict accompanied by a lump crab cake and the Baja Breakfast Burrito are two of our biggest sellers. These hearty feasts are sure to please, but if you’re known to suffer from sea sickness and the high seas aren’t for you, The Geckos will be providing the rythms of the carribean via steal drums and bongos all morning and into the afternoon.

Monday, May 25th
Memorial Day
First, remember to remember why we’re celebrating – why we’re remembering. It is on this day that we commemorates U.S. men and women who fought and died for our country while in military service. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War, it was expanded after World War I to include American casualties of any war or military action. So whether over a ‘cheers’ at the Rams Head, on the beach or in your back yard, surround yourself with the friends and family that you love most. And remember that today we honor the lives of those fallen.

Cheers! And on with Monday Funday!

Wisteria Vine… Oldest in Anne Arundel County?

It is rumored to be true that Rams Head Tavern Annapolis is home to the oldest wisteria vine in Anne Arundel County, Maryland.   I wish I had that documented, stamped and signed so that I could really go to town on that claim and maybe get in on some horticulture tour in Annapolis, or listed in 1,000 Things to See Before You Die, or have it be part of our tagline… Food Fun & Wisteria.   But, for now… it’s just an undocumented rumor.wisteria7

Regardless of documentation, these gorgeous wisteria blooms have cast great purple haze over thinkers in town… inspiring beers of Fordham past (R.I.P. Wisteria Wheat.  You will never be forgotten) and exciting writers to dream of lazy afternoons;

Sitting on the back patio under the enormous wisteria vine on a sunny afternoon is the way to properly enjoy these brews.  -Eric Brace, Washington Post

For us, the arrival of the bloom is a highlight to the spring season, marking the kick-off to warmer weather, happy hours highlighted by the sunset, longer days full of sunlight, and the arrival of a favorite Annapolis past-time: live outdoor music on the patio.

Friday, May 1st marks the arrival of our summer music calendar which includes all the local favorites… The Geckos , Dean Rosenthal, Matt McConville just to name a few.  If you haven’t spent an evening on the patio, at rams head, listening to these guys while drinking a Fordham brew, well… you just can’t call yourself an Annapolitan.  It’s a rite of passage, an Annapolis must.

So, if you’ve been waiting for your official invitation to come and see us on the patio…  it just arrived…  purple and sweet as they come, and full of hosptitality.

Rams Head Tavern Annapolis Summer Music Calendar
Sundays, 11am: Jazz Brunch on the Patio
Sundays, 7pm: The Geckos
Mondays, 6pm: Matt McConville
Tuesday, 6pm: Dean Rosenthal
Wednesday, 6pm:  John Pyle or Kajun Kelley (alternating weeks)
Thursday, 6pm:  Shayne Hudson or Pressing Strings (alternating weeks)
And inside at downbar, don’t miss our resident artist, the famous Mike McHenry Tribe,who just joined the cyber world and got a website.  We love ya Mike… and so does national recording band, Fastball.  Check out all the hype at 10pm on Mondays.
