The “what’s going on Thursday night” post

Today’s Thursday, so it’s once again time to survey what’s going on Downtown this week.

  • The Ugli Stick on the Peabody rooftop.  6 to 10 PM, $5 cover, ladies free until 8.
  • Joyce Cobb on the Madison rooftop, 5:30 to 10:30 PM
  • For the second week in a row… THE DEMPSEYS AT THE FLYING SAUCER!!!!!  You better believe I’ll be there again!  First time they’ve ever scheduled the Dempseys back-to-back weeks.  Wish Downtown Huey’s would give this a try sometime on Sunday nights.  When’s the last time we had a Dempseys show there… December?
  • Not sure who’s at the Red Rooster… their website says Chris Sturt and their MySpace page says Rocky4Phoenix.  Not that it matters… I go for the beer specials more than the music.  The Rooster rocks!
  • Q107.5 patio party with Garry Goin and G3 at EP Delta Kitchen, 8:30-til.  They updated the calendar on their website!  Finally!
  • Ladies’ night at Tug’s in the River Inn of Harbor Town.  Ladies receive half price drinks all evening.

The Rooster, by the way, has a very good band tomorrow night, Friday, May 2… Kings of the Delta will play there.  I’ve heard them many times at the Saucer, and they’re going to sound great on the Rooster’s stage.  Something to keep in mind for post-Music Fest entertainment.

I’ve already received several “THANK GOODNESS YOU FINALLY KICKED YOUR BFF TO THE CURB!” e-mails this morning.  Yep, it was time for her to go.

Coming soon… a post about Circa’s new summer cocktails and beer specials.  Chef John Bragg is now a member of our BBQ team.

Speaking of BBQ… fighting the temptation to hit Leonard’s BBQ Buffet for lunch.
