Stillglow, a band that, after, from what we understand, approximately 491,208 years of existence, is sadly calling it quits this weekend. Now, what better way to honor them than to share this video from 210,739 years ago? There is no better way to honor them. That’s it. That’s the answer. So, behold. Check it out and grab your ticket for their show Saturday, with Crooked Hills (among others), at All Saints Episcopal Church. They will appreciate it if you do. Promise. Elsewhere this weekend, it seems that Alive@Five will be on along Carroll Creek, and we talked about the band that is playing this week, La Unica. Dig Irish music? Dig salsa music? They are for you. Also, Ginada Pinata is returning to Cafe Nola on Friday, and they have a record that you ought to check out. Speaking of Cafe Nola, this band is going to be there on Saturday night, and who knows how that will turn out. Sammi J is at Frederick Coffee Co. and she’s super-duper talented. Guido’s is having a prom. Pete Goodwin, always a good dude, will be at Linganore. Peace Run will bring all the good vibes one might need to The Blue Side. And then there’s Bachelor and the Bad Actress. And that’s a pretty great name. Two more weekends until Labor Day weekend, during which we shall celebrate labor. Be nice to people. The world needs more of that. Rest in peace, Ms. Aretha.
