We’ve got a jam-packed weekend filled with some great goodies. The great Pete Goodwin and the great Todd C. Walker will be appearing at JoJo’s and The Frederick Coffee Company, respectively, throughout the weekend, and we wanted to make sure we gave them some love after they helped us out last weekend. If you happened to be down at the creek last Friday and you liked what you heard, you can check them out tonight and Saturday, separately. Also set for this weekend is the Inn It For The Kids Benefit that will feature the above band, Kalevra (again: Call us out on Facebook, and we’re more than happy to comply!), as well as a fantastically full slate of talent from near and far, at Cafe 611. Plus, to get the weekend started right, all signs appear to be a go for this evening’s Alive @ Five, featuring the Celtic rock of Empty Flask, who will also be playing a show at Bushwallers after their set by the creek. There’s a lot of great stuff going down, friends. Be sure to check something – anything! – out.
