Showcase Your Talent at Open Mic Every Thursday!

Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011

From full acoustic sets to  enthusiastic, spur-of-the-moment renditions of “La Bamba”, Open Mic Night at the Rendezvous Lodge at Adventures on the Gorge is the perfect stage to showcase talent.

Kick off the evening with burger sliders at 5p.m., then sit back and enjoy the music at 8 p.m., or kick it up and play rockstar at the mic.

Expect a laid-back crowd, having a few brews and playing corn hole. Nothing too intimidating if you’re a first-time performer. But they’re an interested crowd, willing to lend an ear to your skills.

Listen to the undiscovered superstars of the New River Gorge, then mosey up to the mic and show the Gorge what you’ve got.

Pets are not only welcome, they’re regular attendees. Feel free to let Fido join in your jams.

See you on Thursday!

Play Yourself Some Mountain Music

Friday, June 3rd, 2011

Folky, funky, fun: all adjectives that can be used to describe the local music scene. A visit to Adventures on the Gorge gives you a chance to listen to some of the area’s premiere bands.

This month, get a taste of four different styles from four dynamic bands.

First, on June 4, catch 600 Lbs of Sin, and hear bluegrass and folk blended with blues, reggae and Southern rock.

Then, June 11, Mike Perkins dishes out grooves based on African beats and built upon with down-home folk for an upbeat, dance-inspiring sound.

Funk it up with Cinnamon Sensation on June 18. If their groovy sound doesn’t get you moving, the smooth sax will.

Round out your live music experience with local favorites The Boatmen on June 25, whose versatile style blends folk, funk, rock, bluegrass and motown.

Click the band names to get a sampling of their sound. Treat your ears to a tune, then live it, dancing and all, at the Rendezvous Lodge every Saturday.
