What more could you ask for? A free Dosh show and a screening of a Terry Gilliam movie, all outdoors. Dosh informed us, each band picked 5 movies and he had selected all Gilliam features, Brazil, Monty Python, etc…

New Venue: 501 Club
Sound familiar? The owner of the 331 Club, Jarret Oulman, plans to open a new venue/bar twice the size of the NE mainstay in downtown Minneapolis..
Here is the story from Vita.mn (Chris Riemenschneider)
331 goes 501
Here’s proof that one club owner is doing well: The 331 Club’s Jarret Oulman plans to open a sister venue in downtown Minneapolis in April. Oulman already has signed a lease on the site that used to be VikingMatt Birk‘s namesake restaurant, Matty B’s, at 501 Washington Av. S. Hence the name: The 501 Club. He doesn’t plan to close his northeast Minneapolis spot, with its always-free mix of indie-folk and none-of-the above music. The 501 will expand on that formula with a twice-bigger space and food service. “It should be easier this time because we figured out the nuances of no-cover programming and we have access to a lot more performers,” Oulman said.
