The Black Shades

Thanks to Soky Happenings for the recent coverage of The Black Shades and a big personal thank you to Jana Sublett, who did a fantastic job with the article.  We’re still holding that freebie show-go for you.  (FRIDAY at ROCKY’S w/ two great out-of-towners, just sayin’!)  Ya oughta come out soon!

The Black Shades love our loyal following in Clarksville, TN and appreciate the hospitality of DIY venue, The Coup.   We particularly appreciate the friendship of our talented fan Rufus Dawkins, who, as of our last show in Clarksville, joined us on stage!  Some people just can’t roll with The Black Shades, but Rufus kicked ass.  Thanks to him and we’re excited to be featured at Clarksville’s Riverfest this Friday at 5:45pm on The Coup stage!  Come see us!

Give us Lake Erie or give us death. This little pier rules so much that we don’t want to tell people what it’s called!

Record Store!: Finders Records in Bowling Green, Ohio. Worth a moment of time. Diverse selection, good atmosphere, priced well!

We try to support local businesses around the areas we tour. A suggestion to travelin’ bands — Kermits in Bowling Green, OH. Get yer eat on! All the food in this photo was about $9.

Thank you Ottawa Tavern for the great evening and thank you Joey and the Traitors for sharing the bill! Love us some Toledo.
