"We don't often hear local bands or those trying to make it on the road say 'I know I've made it when I've played Club Passim.'" Yes, if you're talking about *rock* bands, I suppose that would be true. But the music Paste features is much more diverse than that. For contemporary folk musicians, Passim one of the premiere venues in the entire country. </p>
