Distant Creatures are having their makeup date at Sky Stage this weekend. They are also bringing along Austin & Olivia for some fun. To celebrate the occasion, we thought we’d share this video of their music. You surely remember when we Q&A-ed them … right? Right. Also this weekend, well, the fair comes to a close and you can celebrate that with the Doobie Brothers, Casting Crowns and Lee Brice. There’s also a building filled with booze that some of us have been hanging out at all week for tapings of a future podcast and that also features music. So, don’t sleep on the fair, friends. Don’t sleep on the fair. Speaking of booze, Alive@Five wraps up this evening with the Original Booze Brothers, and that promises to be a bundle of fun. There’s also a show at Guido’s Friday night with two good bands and whatever this is. There’s some Southern Charm. There’s some ukulele jamming. There’s some open mics. There’s some Future Sound. There’s some Milton J & and all his Leftovers. It’s unseasonably warm. Go enjoy it. Love somebody.
