Our friend Beaver has been talking about this for literal months, so we’re excited about seeing this Scottish band live.

Check out Leo’s interview with Diet Cig. This duo’s live show is legendary, we caught them briefly at Shaky Knees a few years ago, but be aware: their poppy punk, fun vibe is more than it seems.

Fast Forward FF w/ Bixel Boys and NVR
Lunazul and Red Bull sponsor this Night Visions Radio monthly party. Ooooooh buddy.
We have loved San Fermin from the moment we first saw their live set in Atlanta four years ago. The beautiful thing about this multi-piece indie band is they have the ability to morph into whatever Ellis Ludwig-Leone thinks up. And usually that is some pretty cool stuff.
Old Crow Medicine Show Performs Blonde On Blonde
OCMS knows how to put a good show on… and they’re playing Bob Dylan to boot? Goodness gracious.
Willie Nelson is down the road at the Horseshoe Casino, so we have to include him on this week’s Can’t Miss.
Sidewalk Chalk has played Haymarket a dozen times at least, but they’re moving on up to the new Zbar. They’re another multi-faceted band that has certainly has withstood the test of time.
