Sore throat and an achy body here, folks, so I’m going to keep this short. And if you don’t hear from me over the weekend, now you know why.

-Tiempo Libre is bringing an authentic Latin-jazz dance party to the Tower Theatre. These guys are awfully good at what they do. Want to win “Bach In Havana,” their new CD? Click here and enter the contest. Deadline is noon today.

-Irish punks the Dropkick Murphys sold out the Midtown Ballroom on Sunday night. I was there, and this is my review. To see lots of great pictures of the night, click here.

-Folk faves Keith Greeninger and Dayan Kai will celebrate the release of their new album with a show Saturday night in Sisters.

-Classic rock will never die! Especially if bands like The Lonely H keep reviving it.

-Reggae great Eek-A-Mouse will return to the Domino Room in Bend next week.

-Check out the seriously diverse lineup of offerings at Silver Moon Brewing over the next seven days. Seriously, they have a lot of good bands coming through there this week! Kudos to Silver Moon and their talent buyer Cassie Moore.

That’s it, folks. To read it all, pick up a copy of the newspaper. But first, send your positive vibes my way.

Bach in Havana Cover

Alright, folks, it’s time for Frequency’s first-ever contest! Very exciting.

Here’s the deal: The super-energetic Latin-jazz band Tiempo Libre — born in Cuba, now based in Miami, so you know it’s authentic — is performing at the Tower Theatre in Bend on Tuesday. By all accounts, this is going to be a heck of a fun show, especially if you’re the dancin’ type.

The band also has a new CD out called “Bach in Havana,” which pairs Tiempo Libre’s timba style with the transcendent brilliance of some dude named Johann Sebastian Bach. Sounds a little weird, I know, but it works quite well. You can listen to the whole album at the band’s Web site to hear for yourself. (Just click “Launch player.”)

OR!

I have a sealed copy of Tiempo Libre’s “Bach in Havana” to give away, and I’m going to give it to one of you guys. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post and tell me why you’d like to hear the thing. Your deadline is noon on Friday — that’s only 48 hours from right now — and I’ll pick a winner that afternoon. Be sure to leave an e-mail address that you actually check so we can figure out how to get your CD to you.

Tickets to Tuesday’s Tiempo Libre show are available through the Tower, and I’ll have an article on the band in Friday’s GO! Magazine.
