Jack Funk is going to be at Olde Towne Tavern Saturday night and what better time than now to draw your attention to this oldie-but-goodie video we did with them a few years ago. Still really love this song. Anyway … welcome to the weekend! Kind of. We have a bevy of things going on in and around Frederick over the next three days. Zydeco Jed, for instance, will be performing at Barley & Hops Friday night. Litz will be over in Shepherdstown for your entertainment. Our old friend Doug Alan Wilcox will be at the company that makes coffee. Interestingly, “Hotel California” will be performed at the Weinberg via an all-star cast of players and that should be something to keep your eye on. Hey man. You can check out any time you’d like. But you can never leave. Luna & The Lost Keys will be at JoJo’s and they’re always a rip-roarin’ time. Tuff Junior, who were featured this week on the Frederick Playlist podcast (you subscribe, right … right?!), will be gettin’ their Slayground on. There’s some reggae. There’s some open mics. There’s some Future Sound. There’s some Martin Sexton. And there’s some Memory House. Just in case you missed it (or as the kids say JICYMI), don’t forget to check out our latest One Take episode that premiered this week. It rocks. Hard. Be good this weekend, friends. It finally feels like fall. Hug somebody.
