Featured events
This week's loudest picks
Handpicked highlights for people who would rather discover a killer bar show than stare at another streaming menu.
Live Music
Burnside Backroom Jam
Local bands, surprise sit-ins, and the kind of room where the crowd is basically part of the percussion section.
DJ Night
Midnight Heatwave
Funk, disco, house, and enough smoke-machine drama to make the room look cooler than anyone in it.
Open Mic
River Noise Open Stage
Songwriters, comics, chaos, and one brave person who definitely brought a flute for reasons unknown.
Spotlight Venue
Friday at The Copper Room
Dark wood, neon glow, local taps, and a backline that's seen things. Perfect for blues nights, punk bills, and last-minute party pivots.
