Hey guys,
It looks like there will be some good music coming up this weekend. You can start catching some shows tonight, if you are so inclined. Happy 4:20. Friday could be a pretty packed night. It starts with one of my favorites, Bottles & Cans, at the Rail Pub Courtyard and ends with another of my favorites, the Hypnotics, at the Social Club. The Friday show at the Barrelhouse looks interesting, with Kung Fu playing one set of originals and one set of Steely Dan covers. Don’t forget that Saturday is Record Store Day, be sure to stop by one of your local record stores. Saturday night looks pretty busy also, it looks like another good night to bounce around down Congress Street. There are a few things to point out about Saturday, the House of Strut’s new record label will be kicking off on Saturday. The Jason Bible Roast at the Jinx should be pretty good too, and I am sure I will end up there. I hope to see you guys around, be sure to say “hello”.
