Sophia’s Rock Beat: 2013

January 7, 2014 by

Sophia’s Rock Beat! I’ve been doing this for 4 years now – going to shows, and videotaping them. Here’s 2010 (saw 139 local bands in 2010), here’s 2011 (saw 170 local bands in 2011), and 2012 (saw 158 bands in 2012) In 2013, for various health and professional reasons I didn’t make it to nearly as many shows and I had slightly less interest in videoing but I still caught quite a bit.

Stats: 53 shows, 132 sets, 114 bands. 

Bands I saw the most:
Lifestyle win this year with 4 times! 

I saw Bent Knee, Sarah Rabdau and Self-Employed Assassins, and Ruby Rose Fox all 3 times.

Bands I saw twice in 2013: Axemunkee, Coyote Kolb, Eddie Japan, Endation, Garvy J and the Secret Pockets of Hope and Resistance, Glenn Yoder and Western States, Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents, Johnny Blazes and the Pretty Boys, Nuda Veritas, Parks, Sidewalk Driver, The I Want You, Twin Berlin, What Time Is It Mr. Fox?

Most Visited Venues:
TT the Bear’s (14 times)
Oberon (7 times – actually a lot more than this, as I went to a lot of plays/burlesque shows that didn’t have live music and therefore weren’t represented by these numbers)
Radio (4 times)
Precinct (4 times)
The Middle East Upstairs, Johnny D’s, Brighton Music Hall (2 times)
