It was just a few months ago that the Growlers played a sold-out show at the North Park Theatre. Brooks was hopping around the stage with a crutch under his arm after suffering a broken foot while on tour. This time around, you can be sure that lazy strut will be hyping the crowd at the Belly Up, where the band performs two nights in a row. They're known for their rowdy crowds, so if you have some angst to burn off before Christmas, here's your chance. Meanwhile, the Casbah hosts a local lineup headlined by Idyll Wild, Snot perform at Soda Bar, and Alice Wallace takes the stage at the Tin Can Country Club.
