So they say it just might flood this evening. Notice that the torrential downpours started roughly around the time when John Fogerty played that awesome, semi-secret show at Mercy? Coincidence? Well, I mean...yeah. Obviously. Fogerty, awesome though he may be, is not The Floodbringer. Not yet. Here are some of tonight's shows:

Rusko at Limelight. I can't say I know Rusko's deal, but Maloney says he's "one of the globe's leading DJs." Sounds like high praise to me.

Salome, Sacaea & more at Little Hamilton.

Last I spoke with her, it sounded like it was going to be her with Larissa (cello, guitar & vocals) and Jordan (bass and BGVs). Unless they've found a fill-in drummer in the past few days I'm unaware of (I'm obvs. unavailable tonight), I'm thinking it'll just be those three.
