There&#8217;s still so much time until the weekend, and there aren&#8217;t many things to do. That is unless you live in Los Santos. There&#8217;s always something planned in the city on a Tuesday, whether it&#8217;s theater, performances, or local events. Though if you&#8217;re looking to make the day count, you&#8217;ve got to go to Bohan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you happen to have a soft spot for musical performances &#8211; or if you just haven&#8217;t gotten a chance to visit &#8211; one of the best things about Bohan is the chance to see Los Santos&#8217; hottest celebrities. It is home to many of San Andreas&#8217; biggest stars, including Jason Tanners, Candace &#8220;Candi&#8221; Kaine, Velma Piper, Piper Riggs, and Konrad Knives. It is possible to find one of these superstars at Bohan on any given Tuesday, ready to make your evening memorable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In October alone, four live performances took place, one for each Tuesday. Originally, the fourth of October had been planned for a ladies&#8217; night, but last-minute cancellations led Jason Tanners to share the stage with Velma Piper. Despite the schedule change, the night went off without a hitch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Velma Piper began the evening with a set of covers of iconic country songs. Specifically, she sang \u201cWhitehouse Road\u201d by Tyler Childers, \u201cGirl Crush\u201d by Little Big Town, \u201cTennessee Whiskey,\u201d by Chris Stapleton, and \u201cNothing Breaks Like a Heart,\u201d by Mark Ronson feat. Miley Cyrus, and \u201cWhy Haven\u2019t I Heard From You\u201d by Reba McEntire.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The country superstar acknowledged that despite her experience on stage she still generally feels uneasy during her live performances and is often nervous almost every time she\u2019s in front of a crowd. Being on stage in front of an engaging crowd can sometimes make her feel vulnerable, but she mentioned it was getting better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t feel nervous talking in front of a lot of people, or dancing in front of a lot of people, but as soon as I get to singing\u2026 I don\u2019t know. Maybe something about it like, when you sing you\u2019re really putting yourself out on the line like that. There\u2019s nothing hidden about you anymore,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides some stage fright, Velma Piper has a rather positive outlook on the future of her career at Bohan. While she\u2019s currently only doing cover versions of well-known country songs, Velma has expressed interest in wanting to produce original pieces. That way she won\u2019t be, as she said, \u201cat the mercy of pre-made instrumentals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason Tanners ended up covering for Candace \u201cCandi\u201d Kaine, who was feeling unwell at the time. Due to the short notice, he said he wasn\u2019t able to prepare a specific set for the evening and just decided to play what came to mind. This included Jason Tanner&#8217;s \u201cTrying,\u201d \u201cLDR\u201d feat. Aiko Arakawa, a metalcore re-imagination of Leonard Cohen\u2019s \u201cHallelujah,\u201d and a seven-minute mystery ballad. Humorously, Velma Piper ended up giving a name to the ballad, dubbing it the \u201cMystery Song.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason Tanners did not elaborate on the name or context of the song further than an introduction, claiming that it was a special moment that wouldn\u2019t happen again. At this time, there appears to be no plan to release it publicly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When not performing at Bohan, Jason Tanners supervises as the Director of Talent Production. This includes organizing the Tuesday events and involving himself in the internal affairs of the record label from time to time. With this knowledge, it wouldn\u2019t be completely inaccurate to assume he likely had a hand in organizing Open Mic Night on October 11th.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second Tuesday of the month of October was led by Piper Riggs. While Jason Tanners holds a supervisor position, Riggs often replaces him as a host when she\u2019s available to do so and is an adamant supporter of every musician who plays there. Even if that occasionally happens to be participants from the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/cht1BKl.png\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image provided by Bohan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Open Mic Night on October 11th reportedly didn\u2019t have as many participants as they hoped. Piper confessed that it was irregular and that they typically had more business on Tuesday, but that it was still great to see other well-known artists, like Jason Tanners, and new talent, getting on stage to perform. To help ease any newcomer\u2019s anxiety, as well as simply for fun, Piper Riggs made a point to perform on stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cI actually played my entire set! As far as my favorite song, it\u2019s hard to choose. I wrote all my songs with my Husband as my muse so they all mean a lot to me. It\u2019s hard to pick a favorite when they\u2019re all about him and he\u2019s my favorite. I released a new song called \u2018The Key\u2019 that I wrote for our one year anniversary,\u201d she later mentioned to Weazel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of the occasional hosting, Piper Riggs is a contracted musician for Bohan. She\u2019s also reportedly planning a winter event later into the season and a release of a new song sometime this month. In a statement to Weazel, she added that all had been made possible due to supporters of her music:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI want to thank all of you for your support. I was terrified to release music because I was so self conscious of my voice. I have a deeper voice than many female singers. All of you have been so kind to me and supportive that now, I barely even think about that insecurity. Thank you all for being so amazing. I love this city and all of you in it. I can\u2019t wait for you guys to hear my new song in November!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 18th of October at Bohan had Candace \u201cCandi\u201d Kaine as the headliner for the event. Kaine is widely known as a professional vocalist and pop star, with an impressive vocal range that she displays at all of her live performances. Some of her original pieces include \u201cThe Unseen\u201d and \u201cFor Her Hero,\u201d which were only recently released earlier this year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She\u2019s a regular performer at Bohan and has been a adamant supporter of their business for several months now. You can look forward to seeing her at the venue again sometime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Konrad Knives finished off October with a live performance utilizing powerful vocals and acoustic guitar. His sets include covers of songs by 3 Doors Down, The Fray, and occasionally, Wicked Games. Notably, he finished the night off with his styling of \u201cCreep\u201d by Radiohead, before wishing everyone a safe goodbye and a Happy Halloween.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Later, he admitted he was surprised at the lack of patrons, but found it enjoyable because he was able to be more intimate with the crowd and engage with them throughout the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knives has long worked alongside Bohan at their events and provided live entertainment for them when he\u2019s been available in the past year. Although he isn\u2019t currently signed on a Bohan, a contract is said to be in the works. When not working at Bohan he\u2019s regularly being hired for gigs such as weddings or local events.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When speaking to Weazel he claimed that he doesn\u2019t necessarily stick to any genre when considering what to perform, but tends to steer away from hip-hop and rap. Most of the time he prefers performing with acoustic guitar and matching music to a vibe that best suits the mood. And, according to regulars, he\u2019s rarely unable to do so. Bohan holds a special place in Konrad\u2019s heart; for him, it\u2019s a place to vibe, chill, to let loose. It\u2019s also a place that defies people\u2019s expectations of him. Some people expected him to fail as a successful musician, but he\u2019s more than proved them wrong since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, October was a jam-packed month of spectacular talent at Bohan that engaged the public with unforgettable moments from some of Los Santos\u2019 most well-known artists. For those who missed out on the month of live performances, you can still regularly visit Bohan on any given Tuesday or check out official announcements to remain engaged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bohan T&amp;M\u2019s will be presenting Jason Tanners tonight, Tuesday Nov. 8th, featuring #BlackHawk 50-cal Stout! Doors will be opening at 9:30pm EST, with the show officially starting at 10:00pm EST.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Los Santos, San Andreas &#8211; In many people&#8217;s opinion, Tuesday is their least favorite day of the week.
