Hudson Valley Underground

http://hvunderground.ning.com/

Remember HV SCENE? They used to put on shows, write articles, I’m not sure what else because I was pretty young and it seemed to linger around Mid-Hudson. I definitely saw the banner at plenty of shows that my friends’ moms drove us to at The Chance and Club Crannell. That group seems to be dead now and merely reduced to a vintage forum. The shows listing and interview archive appear to be buried in the sands of the interwebs… Sad.

But, there is a new movement. The Hudson Valley Underground. The group utilizes Ning… which is a site that lets niches create social networks. So that means, users can sign up, create a profile, and share content. With a profile you (as a fan, band, venue, recording studio, producer, filmmaker, photographer) can post events in the group calendar, write blogs, submit photographs to the gallery, add your video links to the pool… It’s a great local resource, and after a little exploring around, pretty simple to use.
