Tonight, you've got TNTRC's Night of the Living Cover Bands featuring The Protomen, Hanzelle and more at The 5 Spot, plus Joe Pug at The Basement, Black Milk at Third Man, The Long Players doing Let It Be at Cannery and loads more. Saturday night, you're looking at Destroyer and The War on Drugs at Mercy Lounge, Tour de Fun down in Murfreesboro, Chris Crofton's Birthday Bash at The Basement, Mashville at The End and so much more.
