Gastro Non Grata : Marrow Inamorata

Feb 10 Triple Rock Social Club $10 adv/$12 door

Doors at 6, show at 7

We’ve got a message to all you Valentinians out there? Now, Gastro’s not here to judge, we’re not here to tell you what love is or that you should read us poetry or present us with an organ shaped box of candy.

Gastro Non Grata would rather give you a chance to procure an actual beefheart from Clancey’s and make sarcasm sexy again than act like a bacon fat cupid on a paper heart holiday. When you love something, you can feel it in your bones. And if you suck the marrow from the bone, that means you really like it.

Heretofore, we welcome you back into the fold at the Triple Rock Social Club on this 10th of February to partake in Gastro Non Grata : Marrow Inamorata.

On the food front, Chefs Nick and Tyler from Borough Restaurant on Washington Ave will be supplying you with small portions of big flavor. Proving why they’re one of the most written about new restaurants in the city. Mixmaster Jesse Held may also have an alcoholic surprise for those of you that show up in the beginning stages of the show.

Corey Shovein from Founders Brewery will be on hand pouring alcoholic specimens of brewing technology. If you haven’t been drinking Founders, get ready. They’re always doing something interesting whether it be seasonal, year round or just plain weird.

As for the music, we kick things off with St Paul’s serenading stalwart sweetheart Martin Devaney,  he’s gonna kick things off by singing so pretty you’ll find yourself gazing off into the distance wondering why you’re so lucky. Then soul/funk outfit Southside Desire will bring the grooves that make the booty quiver and sway and make the big hole on the front of your head get toothy. Finally,  Bitch City will take the stage and remind you that a punch in the face doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

As always, DJ Shannon Blowtorch will be on hand to setting up a sonic fence that allows no weak jams to impede upon good times.

The ever popular Dead Meat Door Prize is sponsored by the amazing flesh cutters at Clancey’s Meat & Fish

Newly Sponsored by Vita.Mn and 89.3 The Current, give them a what’s up for us.

Greetings Gastronauts. It’s time once again to celebrate separating your trash, riding your bike and winter that feels like late fall. She must be warming up to us and it’s time to say thanks to Mother Earth. Our April 20 Pre Earth Day Confection Carousel comes with a WARNING…

This is a rare Friday night show and no restaurant in their right mind would give us their chef. So we’re setting savory to the side on this one and are bringing in 3 of the most talented pastry chefs in town. So Please, make sure you eat dinner before the show because you will be receiving 3 dessert courses.

Dustan Pinlac of Levain will be the first to establish the base of your sugar rush. Christian Aldrich of Haute Dish will bring the sucrose to the second course and put your taste hairs on edge. James Beard Nominee Michelle Gayer of Salty Tart Bakery will be the one to glaze you off this candy cliff into the abyss of ethereal dulcification.

Each course will be paired with a sample of the bubbly brown stuff from Lagunitas Brewery, there’s even word that we’re going to get one of the few elusive kegs of Waldo’s Ale, an ultra rare Imperial/Double IPA that has only been available in California until now. Corey Shovein of Hohenstein Distributing will be on hand for quality control and Lagunitas craft beer dorkspeak.

The honeyed vocal styling of the Cactus Blossoms will start the night off right on the waltz tip. Heavy Deeds will be bringing their laid back grooves and harmony ambrosia on a journey between your ears to help your second course settle and Michael Gaughan will be performing as Little Dog on Top of a Big Dog to bring your saccharin soaked journey to a close with a dose of perma grin.

As always, Clancey’s Meat and Fish in Linden Hills will be providing carcass for our Dead Meat Door Prize.

Local Author Matte Resist will be on hand to answer any gardening or bike repair questions. He will also be selling and signing copies of his book How and Why : A Do It Yourself Guide.

Tickets are $8 in advance here or you can buy them at the door for $12
