For many, tonight kicks off a weekend, so I can't think of a better way to usher it in than with some live music. Hamilton Leithauser is back for the third time since branching off as a solo artist and his Belly Up show has been sold out for a few weeks. No doubt it will be amazing. Meanwhile, Texan singer-songwriter David Ramirez is back with another show at the Casbah. At Bar Pink, you can find out if local band Polish is pronounced with a long O, as in "a person from Poland" or with a short O, like in "nail polish," or check out the moody rock of Indiana's Cloakroom at Soda Bar. There are great shows all over town tonight and through the weekend, so get out and get some!
