Reach out and touch someone, or something, for free, and that just might mean petting a dog:
– Imagine the freedom this free night will give you. You can pick pretty much any song you desire in a free
TouchTunes night at the Willow River Saloon in Burkhardt on Saturday night, June 4. TouchTunes is the largest
in-venue interactive music and entertainment platform, featured in more than 71,000 bars and restaurants across
North America and Europe. A press release says the network supports a growing portfolio of location-based
digital solutions that encourage social interactions through shared experiences. (Wow that’s a mouthful). They
have the technology to highlight the songs, artists and search results that are most relevant. TouchTunes also
has renewed their exclusive jukebox license featuring The Beatles.
– Dogleg Left will return to play their folk, indie music and light rock at Dick’s Bar and Grill on Friday evening.
They are known for being original, in both their style, tunes played and compositions. They are said to sound like
The Jayhawks and have been signed by the label South Channel. The bio of the Twin Cities band is informative, if
not satirical: “After touring the country for more than a decade and playing nowhere, Dogleg Left has returned
home to record their first work in years.”
– Also at Dick’s, participate in a “threesome,” although that much indulgence might be intoxicating. A set of
three flyers in a row advertise liquor in the forms of Surly on one side and Lagunita IPA on the other, each
featuring a leggy, scantily clad woman in almost exactly the same pose. The flyer in the Middle is for Jim Beam
(lucky guy). Only one of the women, however, is smoking a cigarette, (and I thought that came afterward).
