"Some people say the New Mastersounds are the "Meters of the UK" Maybe if the Meters were 40 years younger, fit, trim, and ready for round 2!! These guys throw down epic funk instrumentals, and do so while being better dressed AND more polite than us. Hot damn fellas, can't wait to rock the BOAT witcha!" --RocksOff NYC

The NMS are a 4 piece instrumental funk band from Leeds, UK Their shows are full of energy and keep the crowd dancing from start to finish. With super tight rhythms, groovy guitar riffs , and The sounds of the Hammond B3-- the NMS are a no miss . They recently headlined the famous Jam in The Damn ( Amsterdam that is) and will be back on Jam cruise in 2011. Just before their show at OTP they will be one of the featured bands at The High Sierra Music Fest and right after their show at OTP they will be closing out Saturday night at the ever popular All good festival in West Virgina.  Check them out. 

But beware its easy to get hooked.

There you have it - these guys don't need a lot of fluff from me to sell themselves.  These funkalicious brits are going to grace our stage at Old Town Pub for the forth time and we're thrilled to have them.  Come see them in our intimate setting before they're way too big for little ole' Steamboat (that's happening as we speak).  These guys are amazing and this show is selling out fast - $12 in advance, $15 DAY OF SHOW.  Call 970-879-2101 for details or email theoldtownpub@gmail.com and we'll hook you up!

For our many out of town New Master Sounds fans - check out Alpiner Lodge for downtown lodging deals a stone's throw from the venue or The Holiday Inn Steamboat for deals near the ski mountain.

See you on July 9, 2010

Please ignore the fact that the top of this ad says these guys are starting at 10pm - they are starting EARLY EARLY EARLY at 8pm - I PROMISE!  I screwed up our ad - not the first time and probably not the last.  Kurt is ready to kill me, so here is a blog post to set the record straight.  This is an EARLY show - we've got opening music at 7pm - and the show at 8pm.  Heck - we even moved Prime Rib night to Wednesday to accommodate all the fans.  Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door.  This is going to be an amazing, fun, throw back to the good ole' days kind of night with several original band members.  See you tomorrow night (Tuesday, June 15th) - come EARLY EARLY EARLY - SHOW STARTS AT 8pm!!!!!!

In honor of Mother's Day - Old Town Pub ran one of our favorite promotions - foot massages for the great moms of Steamboat!  All a doting son/daughter or spouse had to do was come into the Old Town Pub and fill out one of our Mother's Day ballot forms - tell us why their mom was wonderful and she would be entered to win one of four complimentary foot massages from Royal Foot Massage in Central Park Plaza.  For those of you who are unfamiliar with this place -- it's HEAVENLY! 

We had adorable entries and these were the four winners. Thank you to all who participated and congratulations to:

Linda Lyons

Amber Garrity

Sharon Ward

Diana Dunn

My favorite entry of all was definitely Clay Garrity's - in honor of his mom he wrote, "My mom is wonderful because she is always ready to do anything.  She's really polite and a good mother.  I am so glad that m mom is my mom.  She's always eccentric.  Also she is a part of my life.  Even if she is in a bad mood, she trys (sp) to get in a good mood just for me and my sister.  She is also one thrilling Mother!"

Thank you, Clay, and the rest of the kids (and spouses) who entered their favorite mom into our contest.  Ladies - enjoy the foot massages.  Trust me - it's a treat your feet won't forget! 

And someone, please tell my husband, Matt, that I'd like one too!  --Lizzie Larock (owner of Old Town Pub, mother of twins, fully deserving person of a foot massage)
