MATT DRISCOLL: BOOKS NEED ROCKIN’ TOO >>>
Rockin’ the books is fun, yo! If you’ve never experienced it, I highly recommend you try.
I’m not just talking about sitting around your house, playing air-guitar with your collection of Ray Bradbury â€" though that doesn’t sound half bad either. I’m talking about rockin’ the books with the Tacoma Public Library, during this year’s rendition of the Rock the Books all ages concert series. I first rocked the books years ago with Bloodhag at the Tacoma Public Library, and as those who know Bloodhag can surely attest to, it was an amazing experience that remains an amazing memory.
This year’s Rock the Books series, which will be kicked off by a performance from one of this area’s most talked about young indie bands, Don’t Tell Sophie, will begin next Saturday, May 31 in the Tacoma Main Library’s Olympic Room. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and the show starts at 7 p.m. Seattle band the Globes will open the event.
At least wearing my rock columnist hat, rarely do I get the chance to write about events that promise to be “fun for the whole family.†Rock the Books should be just that - even if that is a picture of Don't Tell Sophie brandishing shotguns. If you love your kids, or just love good indie tunes in an unorthodox setting, then gather the family and Rock the Books next Saturday. You won’t be let down.
A full schedule of this summer's Rock the Books schedule can be found here.
