Fountain Square Music This Weekend

Radio Radio has a huge weekend coming up - Mandy Marie and the Cool Hand Lukes tonight, Flounder Bash '08 (featuring Dan Glenzing, Stealing Volume and Creepin' Charley and the Boneyard Orchestra) tomorrow night, and the LonPaul Memorial Benefit show on Sunday. That last event features a huge number of local artists paying tribute to the memory of Mr. Ellrich, with dual shows at Second Story in the Murphy Building and Radio Radio. Check their website for the full lineup.

Sam's Saloon features the Standard Recording Co. Showcase with Pontiak and Wye Oak tonight. The heavy music is reserved for Saturday, when The Reanimated, Shriek, and Order of the Black Hand take the stage.

It's Swing Night tonight at the Fountain Square Theater, as The Stardusters play all of those normal swing-dancing tunes, I suppose. Lessons at 7:30, and then everybody kicks it in earnest at 9.

Deano's Vino has the Shirtless Biddles tonight, with the jazzier sounds of Doris Davis tomorrow.

If you can find time to squeeze in a trip to Fountain Square in between the myriad of jazz, art, independent music, pride, and Italian festivals going on this weekend, it would be much appreciated. Thank you, and good day.
