I was late on this one. Check out the gallery from the absolutely rocking .official on the Amplified blog. We've also got some sponsor news in there.

Amp concerts are done for the year, but the music isn't and downtown isn't, so stay tuned for updates about live music and our partnered businesses.

Thank you all so much for the support, and I'll see you in The Alley.

If there is a right way to end the season, Dazr is definitely a worthy argument. I always go on about the diversity Amp the Alley brings, a

and ways to save shopping downtown this weekend.

Tomorrow is the last show of the season and DAZR is bringing electric energy to the Bud Light Stage. This is going to be a fun Halloween. Can't wait to see you all out there!

It's always bittersweet saying goodbye to Summer and hello to fall. You won't hear a single complaint out of me about a break in the heat, but I may reflect on my lack of watersports for the year while promising I'll make up for it next year. Fall, however, is exciting time of year packed with the H...

New edition of Amplified out now.

We've only got two more shows left for the season, and it has been an amazing one so far.

See you all tomorrow for The Experiment and the I-20 Horns!

We've all been running audibles the past couple of weeks. Adaptation is the nature of life, at least according to Darwin. It's also the nature of live music. Last Thursday the lead singer of Awen Family Band, Tim Husk, received the most exciting news - his partner is going into labor with his first....

This week on the Bud Light Stage - The Experiment and the I-20 Horns!

This is the penultimate show before our big Halloween finale!

You know it's going to be fun with our local band, which has been soaring in popularity over the past two years.

We are excited to have them back. See you Thursday at 6:30 pm.

New Edition of Amplified is out now! Thank you to Whiskey Run for saving the show last week.

Check out this week's article for a recap of an amazing show, plus a gigantic gallery - I'm a sucker for great lighting! Thanks, David Helms and Ruskin Yeargain for crushing on production!

And thank you to everyone who came out to make a canceled show a packed out performance! You all are awesome.

See you all tomorrow for Awen Family Band.

And always, please share to help these awesome local bands, local businesses, and Amp itself. ❤❤❤

Check out this video from Whiskey Run , Amp's saviors of the evening, recorded and filmed at Aiken's own THEDIGITALHALO.

We are incredibly lucky to have these guys on any occasion, but especially last minute when another hurricane tried to cancel another show.

Be sure to come out to the Bud Light Stage tonight and show them some love.

Please stop in with our partnered Alley Businesses tonight as well. Being able to not operate for a week or more is devastating for a small business, and right now they could use your support.

***BREAKING NEWS***

Hurricane Milton is preventing Trae Pierce and The T-Stones from travelling to Aiken for Amp the Alley.

Local Legends Whiskey Run are stepping in last minute to save Amp the Alley!

I kept holding off on publishing the newest edition of Amplified to make sure we were 100% in the clear - turns out we weren't.

Our thoughts are with Trae Pierce and Crew as they weather a monster of a storm.

HUGE THANK YOU to THE BOYS - Whiskey Run! You guys are saving the day.

Be sure you make it out to what is going to be an amazing show on the Bud Light Stage!

Well this one took a while, but new edition of Amplified is FINALLY out.

There was a lot of touch and go the past couple of weeks, and we all had to adapt a little or a lot!

Check out the King Size Gallery plus a video from Trae Pierce and The T-Stones that will be sure to get you excited about Amp being back this week.

It was a King Size setlist. They covered Tears for Fears, Billy Joel, and the Foo Fighters. The Beatles, Tom Petty, and LIT. John Denver,

We are back!

It's been a tough couple weeks, but Amp the Alley is back. Come out and make Trae Pierce and the T-Stones feel welcome as they visit us from Florida to take the Bud Light Stage. They may be taking refuge from something similar to what we just went through, so come show them that HOLO123 Love and support!

Amp the Alley this week is canceled, as are all events this week.

I snagged this pic while .sc was playing a couple weeks ago, and I thought it was a good one to remind us that we are all in this together and to look out for our neighbors.

If you get bored, lord knows I have been, go back and thumb through some issues of Amplified and give them a couple more shares. Gig workers (aka our local bands) will be needing to get back to work soon to earn some beer money! You can find issues of Amplified and the full show galleries at ampthealley.com

Hope all of you are well and safe!

I've missed you the past couple of weeks - ❤️Moose

It looks like we've finally been faced with our first Gully-Washer! So we have decided to unfortunately cancel Amp the Alley tonight.

News from other sponsors:

The Alley Downtown Taproom will be having a Hurrican Hoe Down - 50% off of all tabs! When it rains, YOU POUR!

The Red Door is going to be closed for the evening.

Whiskey Alley: Rain can make seatings limited, be sure to make a reservation for dining.

If we get any other updates we will keep you posted!

Please share and get the word out and keep an eye out on your phone, some of you will be getting cancellation texts as well.

As I watch the satellite trying to figure out what tomorrow brings, I'm adjusting my posting schedule in kind. So here's a picture of Ruskin Yeargain rocking out last week.

The blog should be out tomorrow as we continually evaluate the weather.

Mood Lighting!

King Size killed it last week.

We are all glued to the radar currently and trying to make plans for this Thursday. We've been lucky so far this year, but this one is certainly looking sketchy. Not the first time I've said that this year though. Fingers crossed!🤞🤞🏼🤞🏻🤞🏽🤞🏾🤞🏿
