Byline by Donald Pacella for Stonewall Society Review

Hostess Yolanda and Robert Urban

I would like to start by saying what a refreshing change of pace it was being at Meow Mix this past Sunday evening (Nov. 17th). Being my first visit to their men's night, I wasn't sure what to expect, and I was pleasantly surprised by the caliber of talent on display this evening. For anyone wanting to escape the usual top 40 and generic dance music the scene seems to be inundated with, I urge you to check out any of the three acts I was lucky enough to stumble onto this night.

First up we were treated to a few very honest and original numbers by a performer named JEREMY BLUE. Kids, let me tell you, aside from an obvious talent, this young man is also not too bad on the eyes! (I'll resort to anything to get people to hear good and original music).

Next up was MARSHALL ZARNE who performed two original songs. Again, beautiful voice and quite a way with a lyric. I would actually like to hear him backed by a full band, although he was more than ably assisted by ROB URBAN on acoustic guitar.

For me the real treat was the next band up, The ROBERT URBAN Band. This was my first experience hearing them, and I was blown away. From great original songs to incredible covers, they kicked my ass in true power trio style. I still can't believe I actually heard a band in a gay establishment cover Yes and Led Zeppelin!! I can not wait to see this incredibly talented band a second time.
