Bars of Lynn – Pelican Pub on Open Mic Night
It’s been a while since the last proper Bars of Lynn post. Friday was open mic night at the Pelican Pub on 847 Washington Street, hosted by Jesse Fraumlyn and Greg Guba. If you ever run into Jesse Fraumlyn, ask him the story behind his name. It’s a good one. The theme was definitely... »
A Ramones Tribute in Lynn
Warthog headlined a tribute to NYC punk pioneers, the Ramones, at O’Brien’s in Lynn on Saturday, February 23rd. Also joining them were Demon’s Alley and Damn Shame. Editor’s note: I arrived just at the end of Demon’s Alley – not enough time to get photos of them. I’m a fan of the Ramones... »

Bars of Lynn – Celley’s
I don’t know much about Country, but I’m pretty sure someone once said or sang, “If it ain’t Country, I’m not dancing.” If you ever said that, you might want to head on over to Celley’s Pub on Western Ave. in West Lynn Friday. This week’s featured bar has live classic country each Friday... »
Bars of Lynn – Brandy Barrel
The Brandy Barrel sits in the Angora Plaza on Market Street in downtown, the same mini-strip mall that contains Brother’s. It was built suburban-style, with parking in the front rather than the rear, perhaps in an era when urban density was less appreciated. But long-time Lynners know that’s not the original location. This... »
