Pajama Party Friday March 2 at the Chamber
Facebook Event
This will be a fantastic evening of live music by Queue Up and Roniit (see more below), great dance with DJ Tweakbaby and DJayExcess, and dress up (down?) fun in your favorite pajamas. We will be giving out $50 in cash prizes to the most creative pajamas and the move sexy bedtime wear.
Joining us will be the lovely Roniit (row-neat). Hailing from the mountains of Colorado, Roniit has taken the current trend of doing-it-yourself to the Nth degree. Her new release was written, recorded and produced in her home studio. She designed her own look and web presence logging hours in front of the computer screen. And she spent over 4 months booking a tour, contacting almost 100 venues trying to convince bookers to give her the opportunity to prove her self. Her perseverance paid off getting one out five venues to give her a chance.
On the road since mid January in a cargo van she created into a quasi mobile home, Roniit does the driving along with her drummer Eric racking up thousands of miles. To keep her company and give her moral support, Navi, her Basset Hound is making the tour too.
Roniit’s ability to draw people over to her side was proven when the van got pulled over in Mississippi. After a conversation with the officer, he wanted to know about going to the show instead of giving her a ticket.
Lush and Dark
A lush and dark sonic palette sweeps Roniit’s music, probably due to her nature of writing songs at 2am. “…it helps me work through my problems at that time…” The Press has said:
“Roniit classifies her music as “dark pop,” and the term really fits, in my opinion. It’s electronic music laden with haunting arrangements, minor chords, lots of low tones, and Roniit’s pure-toned voice over the top of it all. Very strong production value for an indie artist!” – Oomph Music Blog
“Every once in awhile, there is this album that comes along that totally blows you away. Roniit‘s self titled release is one such album.” – Migrate Music News
“Roniit’s masterfully executed synthesis of two seemingly juxtapose genres yields a unique, original sound that could easily catch on with the right promotion.” – Lodo Magazine

Dennis Rocks Rocky
While it appears that Queue Up has been lying low of late, Ali and I have actually been quite busy. Ali has been hard at work creating a new theatre company. Talespinner Children’s Theatre will create productions for kids who would normally not be exposed to quality theater. And while Ali was deep in strategic planning, I jumped at the opportunity to play guitar in Rocky Horror. I am lucky to be working with extraordinary musicians who are not afraid to rock hard. Plus the cast is outstanding one and all. The end result is an irreverent execution of the classic musical under the masterful direction of Greta Rothman.
We have now done four shows to enthusiast audiences. Each night has gotten better and bigger audiences, with this past Saturday selling out. This has obviously been fueled by fantastic reviews of the show. We have three more weekends of shows left, so NOW is the time to reserve your seats for a science-fiction rock-n-roll sex comedy that will have you laughing and dancing at the same time. Shows are Friday and Saturday at 8pm. Oh by the way, this Saturday we are performing our one and only midnight show. DON’T MISS IT!!!

Akron’s Musica with Flowers in Flames
Queue Up will be creeping the streets of Akron and slithering onto the stage of Musica. This will be our first appearance at this fine venue. We recently caught a rare performance by Peter Murphy there and was greatly impressed with the venue’s layout. It is so cool when all the audience can see. We will be sharing the stage with our Akron friends Flowers in Flames. It will be good to gig with them again. The show is FREE and ALL AGES.
