New Music Raleigh’s Second Season

August 30th, 2010

nmr.logo

New Music Raleigh is kicking off their second season with a concert on Sunday September 12 at Murphy School Theater (224 Polk St.) in Raleigh. Crumb is very pleased to be supporting these adventurous badass musicians.  Many of you made it out to their last concert which featured a burning hot performance of Steve Reich’s Different Trains. The new season starts with works by Paul Lansky, John Luther Adams, and Raleigh’s own Cameron Britt. Tickets are $10 (cash only) at the door. Crumb will be selling tasty treats before the show and during intermission and Joe Van Gogh will be serving coffee.

From the press release: “Every artist is influenced by their surroundings, whether it be the vast Alaskan tundra or the busiest street corner in Tokyo. Composer John Luther Adams recently said, “My music is going inexorably from being about place to becoming place.” NMR’s September 12 show features selected works that directly compare space and place in music, journeying from a feeling of openness to the influence of urban, electrified places.”

Fullsteam Awesomeness!

August 11th, 2010

near-final

Crumb is very pleased to be making cakes for the pre-opening party at Fullsteam on Friday August 13. In case you haven’t had a chance to try Fullsteam yet, it is some banging beer, unique and tasty! We are making two awesome cakes for the party using beer from Fullsteam:

1] Hogwash hickory smoked porter chocolate cake with cherries and ghost chile ganache

2] Summer Basil farmhouse ale pound cake with tomato curd made from tomatoes from Coon Rock Farm, the source of the basil used in this incredibly refreshing beer.

The party starts at 4pm. Details are here. The tavern will be open to the public at 6:14pm, but there probably isn’t going to be any cake left by then.

Follow Fullsteam on Twitter. Fullsteam is located at 726 Rigsbee Avenue in Durham, NC 27701 (google maps). More about the inmates who run Fullsteam here.

Sunday at Coon Rock Farm

May 31st, 2010

We went to Coon Rock Farm’s annual memorial day party on Sunday. We had a great time, got to meet some interesting people, and we had amazing food and drinks. Those mojitos were the best we’ve ever had.  The rope swing into the Eno was a blast. Everyone should come next year.
