Buzz’s Surprising Concert Guide For November El Paso Events
Some of our bigger rock concerts are next month (Daughtry, ZZ Top) or next year (Ghost, Volbeat). But there ARE some live shows that you might want to catch in November. You just have to know where to look for them. That’s where Buzz’s Complete Guide to November Concerts comes in handy.
In chronological order…

WHERE: Funkmeyers Rec Room 1506 Lee Trevino
Remember when Samuel L. Jackson’s character in Pulp Fiction refers to the kid laying on the couch in Brad and Marvin’s apartment as “Flock of Seagulls”? This is the Eighties pop reference he was making. The band will be in El Paso for Funkmeyer's 7th Anniversary and will be playing all their hits including “I Ran”, “I Ran (Disco Remix)” and “I Ran (Radio Edit)”.

“Live: You Get What You Play For” is one of my favorite live albums of all time, period. It would be great if I could see Kevin Cronin (RIP Gary Richrath) in person. I’m working to get them to change this to a Friday just so I can go.
