Depending on how you look at things, it's either the end of the weekend or the beginning of a holiday week. I'd like to look at it as the latter and just ease into full-on vacation mode, if you don't mind. This afternoon, Grampadrew's Flim Flam Revue returns to the Casbah for a matinee performance at 2 p.m., or catch a matinee with Bruin at Bar Pink at 3 p.m. Maybe afterward you should hit up Little Italy or Starlite for dinner before returning for alt-buzz band Black Pistol Fire, or see Blues Traveler on their 30th anniversary tour at House of Blues. Noisey describes Soda Bar's headliner Korey Dane as the "skater stoner Bruce Springsteen," and Aaron West & the Roaring Twenties return to town with a show at the Irenic.
