Last week I dove into the dive bar scene at Jeff's Bucket Shop on Montford Road, which may as well be called Dive Drive. There is nothing shiny about Jeff or his Bucket Shop; it's diminutive, grubby, and crowded (even though there were only about 20 people there). Yet, it was an endearing venue with Will Adams, a new artist on the Q.C. music scene making his Charlotte debut. I foresee him playing his alt-country with a bigger band in a bigger venue in the near future, cause he's talented and cute enough to make it. But seeing as how a big-name band like Simplified still plays every Sunday at the neighboring dive, The Press Box, you can make a big splash with a little dive.
