- The Mousetrap is one of Indy's oldest north side watering holes. Since 1957 we've been slinging strong drinks and serving up great food. In the early 70's we began serving our famous beef stew and the same people come back time after time for another super hot helping. In 2002, I bought the Mousetrap and gave the old place quite an overhaul. We added lots of TVs, a huge 120" Hi-def big screen, new windows, carpet and an overall make-over. The stew was brought back to it's original recipe and the rest of the menu was revamped. We now offer a huge menu of pub fare, burgers and pizza, as well as homemade daily specials such as Kandas famous meatloaf and Karrus' homemade soups. With 5 pool tables, video games, dart boards and dozens of board games, there is always something to do. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we even have a "Cash Payout Poker tourney". Most importantly, we brought in live original music. Concentrating on jam bands, we have played host to numerous up and coming bands from around the midwest, as well as many that are already very well established. Though considered small (a couple hundred +), the place has a vibe and soul that's electric. Bands can't wait to come back and there are always more fans to greet them at their next show. Every Wednesday Adam Catron of The Twin Cats hosts a Family Jam featuring some of the most accomplished musicians in the city. Every Friday and Saturday we have the best music in the city, and it's free! The word is out! Come see for yourself. Check out our calender for what is coming up.

Yeah, of course there are other tastemakers - I vaguely mention that we all have our own filtering mechanisms and that will continue. Social networking and blogs will become more and more important - as will ways of communicating that we can't conce…
Hey John, since you are the only person I know who would know:
Are the models that drive satellite radio producing any revenue for the artist? You don't mention satellite services but to me, not having one, it seems to be a logical evolution to bet…
I predict that labels may not go away, but they will become less important--as will traditional broadcast radio. Ten years from now we will all have internet-based radio in our cars. And the taste-maker-gate-keepers may not all be labels. They might…

I think it's significant that iTunes acquired LaLa, a streaming site (which I use to preview or rather pre-listen to new releases). With the likely release of Spotify in the U.S., and the fact that Rhapsody already has a subcription streaming servic…
John- do you think there will be one master archive of all music in various formats (Wav, MP3, etc)?
I think you are right on with your predictions but I wonder about the logistics. Will it be like the current distro model where you can get these r…
thanks for adding your story PJ!
Thanks, man. I'm not second-guessing whether SubPop was ever actually part of the major system - it seems like they did some sort of P&D deal around the time Mammoth and Matador did, but I don't recall for sure. Anyway they are an indie currently an…
