Lovely CARRIE (pictured with me here) down at BAR TWIST in Arcadia has got a LIVE MUSIC thang goin' on every TUESDAY NIGHT that's she wants everyone to know about! The owners are giving her a shot at proving that Neil Young was right when he said "Live music is BETTER!" And what else have you got to do on a Tuesday night anyway, than catch a great live band at a classy place with no cover charge?It all starts around 9pm and there will be a different band each week that's guaranteed to get you up and dancing! Check the weekly listings here or call 626-254-1760 and ask for Carrie. And if your band wants to get in on the action, she's the gal who can hook you up!
