Tonight brings the final night of Alberta Cross' residency at the Casbah, so if you haven't had the chance to catch them yet, make sure to head on down before they're gone for good. Last week we profiled the band (watch it here) and gained insight into their songwriting process, and this week, you can see that magic on display. Personally, I think I'll kick off my evening early at the Handlery Hotel's pool at Jesse LaMonaca and the Dime Novels' final poolside appearance of the summer. Not a bad way to get over your hump day.
