This past Friday night (03/21) local favorites Sons of Bill and Sparky’s Flaw were joined by Richmond-based Duchess of York, as they played to a packed house at the Satellite Ballroom. The following show review comes to us from one of our readers who saw it all take place. Thanks to Tito who sent this one our way!

Two exciting and on-the-rise local favorites team up for what promises to be a packed house double-bill tonight at Satellite Ballroom. Sons of Bill and Sparky’s Flaw will once again share the same stage right here in their hometown of Charlottesville. The last time these two got together here in C’ville was at a sold-out performance back in 2006 at the Starr Hill Music Hall. I can’t imagine there will be many tickets remaining after this show either.
Sons of Bill brings the country-rock and Sparky’s Flaw adds the indie-pop for what promises to be an amazing evening of music. Duchess of York opens.
Doors at 8pm and according to Satellite’s home page, tickets are still available.

Here’s another semi-regular feature. I’m hoping to do at least one of these posts a week, but I’m sure there will be times when they will appear with a greater frequency. And no, these posts are not going to deal with noise pollution. In fact, it’s just the opposite. Here’s where I’ll highlight a few upcoming shows that I have circled on my own music calendar.
Sons of Bill w/ Sparky’s Flaw–Friday, March 21 @ Satellite Ballroom. Doors 8pm.
This is the second time these two local bands from different sides of the musical tracks have shared the same bill. At the very least, it’s a really interesting dynamic just to walk through the audience at one of these shows. S.O.B. brings the boot stompin, whiskey drinkin, good ol boys and Sparky brings the teeny boppers and the young indie-pop kids. The last time they were together they sold out StarrHill . Satellite Ballroom has all the details on their music calendar. Just click here.
