Blind Bob's has an excellent line-up, as always, with Mr. Gnome, Speaking Suns and Lioness. Very exciting for alternative and indie rock fans, so get there early. I have a feeling this show is going to be packed, and for good reason. The bands are awesome! Show starts at 9pm. 21+ $5 cover.
Another great show in the District this evening is the Nasty Bingo show at Trolley Stop. Not only are they a great folkadelic rock band, I'm loving the special guests they have lined up: Khrys Blank, Erich Reith & Patrick Himes. Yeah! That's going to be a fun show for sure. Show 9:30pm. $5 cover. 21+
Punk rock kids, get over to

For live music fans who love great rock, I'd suggest checking out the Nightmare on Brown Street event with Vibe & Direct and Subterranean at Jimmie's Ladder 11. V&D are coming down from Cleveland to shake things up with their ever-evolving musical fusion. Subterranean is one of the most innovative and exciting original bands to come out of Dayton. Can't wait for this show! 10pm $5 cover.
