Birds of Avalon w/Hans Condor, Richie Ghostfinger & Church of the Good Hustle at The 5 Spot. According to 5 Spot Todd, "Church of the Good Hustle may be most of the 5 Spot staff, but we see what doesn't work and what rules every night of our lives." Fair argument.

Hands Off Cuba w/Forrest Bride, Square People, The Zut Alors & more at Open Lot. Another venue on the East Side! Happy to see things opening up a bit.
