Local Artist Showcase
Rough Cut Hard Cider
3250 US Hwy 2 E, Kalispell, Montana

We bring to you our monthly Local Artist Showcase! This month has some old and new faces! There are 4 artists preforming this week!
First, we have London Dobbs. He brings modern twists on classical pieces with unique fingerstyles, serious technical skill and infectious whimsy that should not be missed.

Izzy is a worldly traveler and devoted local artist who delivers hypnotic and trippy acoustic stylings on well known hits, as well as his own incredible originals with a powerhouse voice that will leave you speechless.

Paul LaCorte, also known by his stage name “Heartbreaker” and one half of the group “Honkydonky and Heartbreaker”, brings an eclectic mix often covering everything from country to reggae to hip-hop and rock and everything in between. He will often bring a sense of humor to his music that will leave you smiling long after the show ends.

To close out the night is Dan Dubuque, a Showcase veteran who brings a next level caliber of devotion and skill to his Weissenborn slide guitar that will captivate and keep you in a trance until long after the last note is played. Combining an array of effects, Dan covers hits by Rage Against the Machine, Nirvana, TOOL, Foster the People, Daft Punk and so many more.

TNR – Thursday Night Mountain Bike Ride
Meetup / Start at the south side of the University Footbridge
Missoula, Montana

Deer Creek Sneak
We had a great turn out last week Blue Mountain with two groups and lots of new and old faces coming out to enjoy the sunshine. It looks like it’s going to be a bit cooler and maybe wetter this Thursday.
We’ll try to complete the Deer Creek Sneak route around Mount Sentinel. However, if the Crazy Canyon crossover is too muddy we’ll bail down to Pattee Canyon road to complete the loop. Meet at the south side of the University Footbridge.
Beginners and slower pace riders can choose to ride with our resident legend TNR pioneer, Alden Wright.
See you out there!

TNR! – Weekly mountain bike rides in Missoula every Thursday Night starting at 6 pm sharp – a different location every week. Arrive prepared to ride, please carry enough to be self-sufficient. Rides are open. Check http://thursdaynightmtbr.org for weekly current meetup location details
