We love us some Peter Gabriel and we’ve long seen the Dapp name in regards to coming to Cafe Nola every now and then. So check it out. A video of Dapp covering “Sledgehammer.” And a happy Thursday to you, too! These dudes are going to be at Cafe Nola on Saturday and why wouldn’t you go funk and roll? Like, honestly. Why wouldn’t you? It’s supposed to be a fine weather day. It’s the final weekend before Thanksgiving. Go funk and roll. Do it. Anyway, also this weekend, Hucklebuck, who we questioned and answered this week, will be at The Blue Side Saturday night and that promises to be fun. 7th Sun, who we questioned and answered a little while ago, is heading to Olde Towne. A genuinely great show for a genuinely great cause is also going down at Champions Friday evening as three of the area’s best cover bands plan to take the stage as a means to raise funds for children this holiday season. Honestly. Head out to Westview and help support the cause. You won’t regret it. A super great show is going down at the Rock School here in town, and if you want to rock, you know where to go. Bad Seed Rising. Strange Hate. More To Monroe. Marzy Maddox. Medium. Do it to it. There’s Muskrat Sally. There’s a slew of open mics. There’s Chamomile & Whiskey. There’s Donnie Wood, who we adore. There’s Craggy Island. There’s Future Sound. And, of course, there’s the Short Hill Mountain Boys. No Weekend Playlist next week, friends. Instead, eat your turkey and watch your football. Remember to be kind and rewind. Always. Forever.
