The Quads

Posted by: Stephanie De Pasquale on April 9, 2009 at 6:57PM CST

Show to see

Hip-hop/funk/jazz combo The Uniphonics are headlining at Rock Island Brewing Co. on Saturday, April 11. The group has an emcee instead of a jazz vocalist.

Opening the show is Quad-City reggae band Bumper Crop. The show starts at 10 p.m. and the cover charge is $5.

He said what?

Josh Smith, better known as DJ Buddha, is hoping to dispel the misconception that DJs just play other people’s music when he performs at the Go&Do Live Sessions on Tuesday, April 14.

“The way we go about methodically picking out how we’re going to play and how you change the tempo or speed of a song to match them up so they fit perfectly. I want to open people up that we’re not just a bunch of drunk yahoos behind a DJ booth.”

For the family

The Quad-City Rollers are back at it again with a bout against the Mid Iowa Rollers at 7 p.m. on Saturday, April 11, at the RiverCenter in Davenport.

The Quad-City Rollers fell to the Des Moines-based Mid Iowa Rollers last season, but the Rollers are coming off the momentum of last month’s win against the Big Mouth Mickies.

Tickets are $10 at the door or $8 in advance and can be purchased at 2 Docs Chiropractic, 216 E. 50th St., Davenport, or at Beyond the Baseline, 1540 West 12th St., Davenport between 7 and 9 p.m. Friday.

For teens

Teens looking for a chance to volunteer in their community are invited to the Teen Volunteer Council’s monthly meeting at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 14, at the Davenport Public Library’s Fairmount Street branch, 3000 N. Fairmount St., Davenport.

The Council helps plan teen programs and obtain materials that interest their age group. Networking opportunities are also available. For more information contact Christie Vogt at (563) 326-7900 or cvogt@davenportlibrary.com.
