Two Excuses For Midweek Partying!

Wednesday night St. Andrew’s Hall will be hosting a musical threesome that has been a favorite to many of my friends for years. Alkaline Trio will be hitting the stage along with Girl In A Coma and, one of my local favorites, Break Anchor. The show is part of a short Mid-West jag of shows that the band is playing, including a couple of others in Ohio and Riot Fest in Chicago.

The last few times Alkaline Trio has come to town they have played slightly bigger venues like The Fillmore and Clutch Cargos, not to mention the giant setting of Comerica Park when they played on Warped Tour. So it’s nice to see that this time around fans will be able to watch the band from a slightly more intimate setting…Unless you like the bigger venues, then sorry about your luck. Tickets for this all ages show are $22.50 and can be purchased at the St. Andrew’s box office or through Live Nation.

If you want to see Break Anchor play, but don’t want to dish out the bucks to see them open for Alkaline Trio, they will be playing the following night at The Loving Touch for just $5. This is the Tour Kick-Off show for Break Anchor and for Against The Grain. (Man, those guys are hitting the road a lot this year!) In addition to these two bands Dead Ellington will be in town from Boston and Detroiters Down Down Down will be playing. We are really looking forward to finally catching those guys.

Two great nights of music and two chances to see Break Anchor, right smack dab in the middle of the week. The weather is crappy, fall is upon us…why not head out to a show, grab a drink and grab your friends. Well, don't like inappropriately grab them...creep.
