Channel the spirit of Oktoberfest with a stop into Downtown Bozeman’s Eagles Bar. The local watering hole features drink specials, Friday night BINGO and burgers, as well as regular live music by local musicians and visiting acts. Here’s a look at who’s playing at FOE in the coming weeks.
Poison Lovers guitarist and vocalist Robert Lethert brings a solo show on Wednesday, October 16th beginning at 8pm. Expect a blend of old school country and contemporary Americana. His strong gravely voice will perfectly complement your evening at the downtown tavern.
KneeJürk is back with the weekend ditties on Friday and Saturday, October 18th and 19th. The supersonic Southwest Montana duo incorporates the big band beat, performing the best toe tappin’ sing-alongs from the ‘60s to now.
On Wednesday, October 23rd, Greg Hall provides the live acoustics at 8pm. Head downtown for your midweek cold one and enjoy his musical stylings!
High-energy dance outfit The Mighty Flick returns to the Eagles on Friday and Saturday, October 25th and 26th. Performing throughout Montana venues since the late ‘80s/early ‘90s, their enthusiasm and love for music is contagious, sometimes inspirational, and always entertaining.
And this group comes with instructions! Pre-heat the dance floor to a cozy temperature. In a large bowl, combine a generous mix of classic rock n’ 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.
Up in the Ballroom, New York-based rockers The Casualties deliver a show on Tuesday, October 29th at 8pm. The band combines influences from the classic punk sound of GBH, The Exploited, English Dogs, Discharge and UK Subs with modern extreme sounds and a thrash/crossover edge. Their latest release, Written in Blood, is out now. Tickets to the 18+ show are $13.50 in-store at Cactus Records, also available online.
Back downstairs, Neil Filo Beddow is set for Wednesday, October 30th at 8pm. He plays original folk rock for the soul, and describes his guitar style as the “West Dakota stutter.” His lyrically scrambled iambic pentameter can be politically bent, spiritually seeking, and tongue-in-cheek humorous with just a twist of serious.
There’s no better Thirsty Thursday than one with Sunrise Karaoke, setting up at FOE every week at 9pm. Sing your heart out, cheer on your friends and maybe even do a dance number between songs!
Bridger Mountain Big Band performs regularly on Sundays from 7–9:30pm. 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 1900s to today. Check them out on Facebook for performance announcements.
Eagles Bar live music begins at 9pm, unless otherwise noted. Head downtown to play a game of pool, listen to some great local bands, or stop in for a cold one any day of the week! The Eagles is located at 316 E Main.
