The Eagles, a decades-long mainstay in downtown Bozeman, draws a diverse crowd.
From cowboys to ski bums to college kids, you can witness nearly every demographic on a typical night. They host live music, karaoke, serve inexpensive drinks, and as always, have unlimited free peanuts! Here’s a look at what’s coming up. Country Rockers Bluebelly Junction will take the stage Friday, February 5th and Saturday the 6th. Formed in early 2013, Bluebelly Junction has been providing audiences with what they consider “rockabilly music” all over the state of Montana. The high-energy band tends to veer away from slow jams, other than the occasional tune. With an arsenal of originals and personalized covers, the guys will keep you on your feet until last call. Spark1 Medicinal Cannabis will present a Bob Marley Birthday Celebration featuring The Congos and The Mighty Diamonds with King Hopeton and the Yellow Wall Dub Squad on Saturday, February 6th upstairs in the Eagles Ballroom at 10pm. Tickets to this 21 and over party are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. Tickets are available now at Cactus Records and cactusrecords.net/. Doors at 9pm.
The Mighty Flick will take the stage on Friday, February 12th and Saturday the 13th. Instructions: Pre-heat the dance floor to a cozy temperature. In a large bowl, combine a generous mix of classic rock and roll and eighties dance hits, sprinkle with modern alternative rock, add a dash of country swing, and top with some Gen-X pop inspiration. Blend on high until the vibe is exciting and the groove is irresistible, then bake until the songs are tight and punchy. Turn down the lights, serve with cocktails and dancing shoes, and you have a great evening of live music and entertainment! Serves as many as you please… Flick is a three-piece, high-energy dance band whose members are familiar faces of the Montana music scene. Performing throughout Montana venues since the late eighties/early nineties, their enthusiasm and love for music is contagious, sometimes inspirational, and always entertaining. The Bridger Mountain Big Band performs every Sunday from 7:30-9pm. The 17-piece jazz orchestra celebrates the music of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and more, with original arrangements and music of all genres from the 1900’s to today. You don’t have to be in a band to have talent!
Showcase your musical stylings at Open Mic Night every Wednesday. Be sure to show up early to sign up and get some liquid confidence! Performances start at 8pm. Sunrise Entertainment brings the fun of karaoke and DJ music every Thursday at 9pm. The Eagles also hosts Margarita Mondays and BINGO every Friday. Come play a game of pool and listen to some great local bands at the Eagles Bar, located at 316 East Main Street next to the Nova Cafe. For more information, call (406) 587-9996. •
