Weekend Reminders

Get to work and don't forget to hurry and RSVP for It Was Written tonight at The Independent. Celebrating Jamaican Music and of course the wonderful gift they gave us in the form of Red Stripe beer. After that say bye to Car Stereo (Wars) in style at Beauty Bar. I'm sure some Michael Jackson will be played. Then catch last call at Creekside where DJ Orion will be spinning the Red Stripe after party with some very special guests. Then of course tomorrow before you head out to see Ben Kweller, the return of Belaire or go to Rock The Casbah start the night off with us at Tripp Custom T Shirts [Details HERE] . We have DJ Orion, The Authors and The Great Nostalgic playing along with FREE Lone Stars! That goes down 6-9pm. Have a good weekend and we hope to see you Saturday.

Creekside Lounge Presents Mellow Owl, {{{Sunset}}}, and More

Usually when we check for venues for shows we recommend for the week we don't check  Creekside Lounge (707 E. 7th St.). Great drink specials, good times but hardly any shows. But tonight they have a show definitely worth mentioning.  On the bill are School Police, Reverse X Rays, {{{Sunset}}}, and Mellow Owl.  Should be a good time, and it only costs $6.
