The Warlocks Are Coming to Town!

I know the Turf Club isn't anywhere remotely close to the Varsity Theater nor will you need a Varsity Theater ticket for the show, but there are a couple awesome bands coming to the metro area that I think you should know about.
The Warlocks and The Black Angels are playing at the Turf Club in St. Paul (it's on Snelling and University).
The last time The Warlocks were in town I had to be out of town (I was at the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings game at Lambeau Field!)
The Warlocks are the kind of band whose line up constantly changes. They are also plagued with money troubles, their record label dropped them, their trailer with all their equipment was stolen a couple years ago. But none of this changes that they make some great music.

AND Austin, Texas's Black Angels will be opening the show. The Black Angels are touring in support of their new album and like the Warlocks, their live show is not one that you want to miss!

SNOWDEN AT THE VARSITY THEATER

Indie rockers, Snowden have just announced a show at the Varsity Theater next month.
Varsity Theater tickets for this show will probably go fast will all the airplay the band has been getting on local radio station89.3 Current.

Snowden is from Atlanta, Georgia.
This is one of the band's first large scale headlining tours. In the past Snowden has toured with the Arcade Fire and Kings of Leon. Fun trivia fact: hey get their name from Howard Snowden, a fictional character from the novel Catch 22 by Joseph Heller.


You can catch Snowden at the Varsity Theater on May 24th @ doors at 8pm, music starts at 9pm 18+
