Monster acoustic guitarists (monster in talent, not in intentions or appearance, although I would most certainly pay to see zombie guitarists . . . at a distance) Andy McKee and Nicholas Barron return to Radio Radio this Saturday. I’m seeing Radio Radio host more and more of these type of events, so keep checking back with them if you like this sort of virtuosic playing.

If you prefer louder fare, Sam’s Saloon hosts a night of metal Saturday night featuring Solomon Grundy (he broke up with the Legion of Doom and went solo, evidently), Pulse 8, Piss Off, and Black Stone Ritual.

Since the previous shows take place Saturday, you’ve got room to learn some swing dancing at the Fountain Square Theater with the Indianapolis Jazz Orchestra. You could also take in Jude’s Jugs Band tonight at Deano’s Vino, or wait for John Harden Pope tomorrow.

Incidently, this whole weekend seems to be ramping up to St. Patrick’s Day on Monday, with a fun run/walk this weekend (fun for some, I suppose) and multiple events courtest of Deano’s Vino. They’re even shoving shamrocks in the fountain. I’ll do my part by blasting some Black 47, I suppose.
