I'm sitting here enjoying my coffee at Loop here in Tremont, and the daunting task of getting back into the swing of things at Citizen Dick involves getting up to speed with local things going on here in Cleveland.  James is busy in Brooklyn, and we're over here sorting through all the LeBron James muck for signs of life.  Luckily, starting on July 14th, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame begins their annual Summer in the City concert series.  Last year, Akron/Family zapped every last bit of oxygen out of the Cleveland lakeside air, and we're stoked to see an even heftier lineup of shows this year.

Here's the lineup:

Wednesday, July 14 – Carolina Chocolate Drops with Lighthouse and the Whaler

Wednesday, July 21 – Free Energy with Founding Fathers

Wednesday, August 11 – Deer Tick (Yeah!)  with The Modern Electric (Double Yeah!)

Wednesday, August 18 – Trans Am with Megachurch

Sign us up immediately for the Carolina Chocolate Drops and Deer Tick show.  The Modern Electric playing at The Rock Hall?  Are you kidding?

Here are a few MP3's of the bands to whet your appetite.  Stay tuned for more info as the dates near.

Free Energy – Hope Child

Carolina Chocolate Drops – Cindy Gal

Deer Tick – Dead Flowers (Rolling Stones Cover)

The Modern Electric – As Sharp As Knives
