Burlington Underground

I am constantly trying to expand this blog to include more information from other areas of Vermont, not just the Northwest, but considering the Greater Chittenden County area is the most populated and the most music seems to be coming out of this area combined with the fact that most materials I get are pitched to me, well - that's why I haven't expanded as much as I'd like. This is also a side project for me which is why I am always looking for guest writers to write about music going on and profiles of musicians and bands in all areas of Vermont.

Recently I was enlightened to a new music scene connection - Burlington Underground. Looks like another attempt to organize Burlington's music scene - a website listing all music in the Burlington area. It seems like they plan to take it one step further than Seven Days and include much more of the underground music scene (hence the name). This is all a good thing as the more ways there are to promote local live music, hopefully the more people we can all get away from their computers and TVs and out to support and enjoy musicians from their own communities. Of course this only works when people pay for the music which is so necessary to be able to keep musicians going (equipment, practice space, etc.) - I have a growing pet peeve for people who find anyway they can to avoid paying for music.

Anyway, check out www.BurlingtonUnderground.com and be sure to bookmark as from what my sources tell me, this site should be growing to include much more on the Burlington music scene - let's hope that happens!!

So far it just seems like an incomplete listing of some local shows at mainstream venues. What's underground about that?

I like it ! I know Higher Ground is mainstream and they seem to have it. There are 30+ venues listed though, and they all can't be mainstream :P

Hooray for Burlington Underground!

Hey! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering
which blog platform are you using for this website?

I'm getting tired of Wordpress because I've
had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.

I think that you ought to write more about this subject matter, it may not be a taboo matter but usually people don't talk about these topics. To the next! Cheers!!

WHere the hell is the Electronic UNderground Scene in this state???? It can't be that dense here that no one knows what EDM means? And no it is not a hunting term. Follow me here if you want to know what it means to be EDM.
