Much Respect: Ira Rogers
Ira is a Raleigh youngblood who books most of the local house shows, rages hard for every (worthwhile) band, and plays in quite a few amazing bands including Thieves and Stripmines. He is a music animal and blasts apart a drumset like a raging baboon. He is full of energy and excitement about good music. Much respect to Ira for gluing the pieces of the Raleigh scene back together and uniting the older and younger crowds.
