Bringing that unmistakable wall of sound to life is the legendary trio that fans know and love: the powerhouse vocals of Chris Cuttler and Robbi Zana, anchored by the blistering fretwork of long-time lead guitarist Paul Gales. A Scat show is never complete without the soaring solos and iconic riffs of Paul Gales. As one of the most respected guitarists on the circuit, Paul brings a level of technical brilliance and raw energy that has to be seen to be believed. From the screaming leads of AC/DC to the melodic anthems of Dragon and Cold Chisel, Paul’s signature style is the engine room behind every song, ensuring every chord hits as hard as it did 30 years ago. With Chris and Robbi leading the charge, Scat delivers a non-stop parade of retro hits and rock anthems. This is the music you grew up with, played by the band that knows it best. Prepare for a setlist packed with: * The Icons: Midnight Oil, The Angels, and INXS. * The Divas: Suzi Quatro, Tina Turner, and Baby Animals. * The Rock Legends: Queen, Bon Jovi, and Bryan Adams. Whether you’ve been following them since their record-breaking residencies or you’re ready to experience the legend for the first time, grab your mates and get down to the Burvale for a night of pure, unadulterated rock and roll.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!

The topic for June is "Roadtrip" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
