Local metal band After God have released a new music video and you can watch it on their Facebook page.

Things have been changing up in the weekly line-up at Oscar’s on the Corner.  Mondays are reverting to country music, with new outfit of familiar faces Clay George & the Riverside Kings bringing a mix of Clay’s original tunes and country standards.  Wednesday band blender has morphed by name, line-up and repertoire into Crash Boom Bang – while they take a three week break at the end of July they will be replaced by Fine Cottom.  Sundays will continue to be mostly covered by Electric Muxu Orchestra, with occasional substitutes.  Tuesdays with Temple, Thursdays with The Extraordinary Chambers, and guest bands on Fridays and Saturdays remain the same.
