Updates: Tonight (4/25) at the Mollie Fontaine Lounge (679 Adams Ave.), Richard James (of Richard James and the Special Riders) will be performing with Jake Vest and Toby Vest of Tiger High! There is no cover for this show, and it should kick off around 11:00pm. Mollie Fontaine’s is a 21 and up venue.
In the spirit of making this blog inclusive of all of Memphis’ finer arts, tomorrow night (4/26) at Studio on the Square (2105 Court Ave) the University of Memphis will be hosting Focusfest, which is their student film festival. This kicks off at 7:00pm and admission is free!
Let me give one more reminder that Guitar Wolf will be at the Hi-tone tomorrow night as well. It’s starting to look like I’m going to end up missing this show which is a bummer….but you should be there!
As some events in my non-blogger life are forced to take precedence, posts are gonna be a bit scarce this week. As I find out about more shows, I will log in and edit this post to include them though….(honestly, I’m just hoping that things will work out so I can see Guitar Wolf!).
