#ygkChallenge: Catch Some Live Music

Welcome to Kingstonist’s weekly challenge, dare, resolution or whatever you prefer to call it. Each week we establish a new and ambitious community goal, encouraging our readers, followers, friends and families to step out of their comfort zones and do something great, and hopefully a little out of the ordinary. Consider this your official and personal invitation to join us in completing a small but meaningful achievement. By taking part in this community-wide initiative, we hope to make Kingston a slightly better place to live, work and play. And of course, we also hope that you will feel proud of your contribution and achievement.

This week’s challenge encourages you to:

Show live music some love. Us Kingstonians are really lucky.  For such a relatively small city, we have a ton going on, including a whole lot of live music.  Between places like The Mansion, The Grad Club, Ale House and The RCHA, to name a few, we have the option of taking in something different pretty much every night of the week.  And don’t forget The Grand Theatre, The K Rock Centre or things like the Live Wire Music Series.  Whether you decide to catch some folk or blues at the RCHA this weekend, check out the symphony at the Grand or go for some metal or experimental fun at The Mansion, there are lots of options.  This week we challenge you to get out there and enjoy some live music.  Take a look at our calendar to see what your choices are and, musicians, got a gig this week?  Give us the deets below.

Sign up and commit to completing this week’s challenge by commenting below with an “I’m in“, “challenge accepted“, “en garde” or something along those lines. Further, help us spread the word via Twitter and Facebook by sharing the link and encouraging the participation of your friends and family. By joining together in our weekly challenge, we hope to accomplish big and positive things for our community.
