Weekend Preview – June 18th to June 20th

Open Bar Weekend!!

This weekend is going to be bananas. A good friend of mine is getting hitched, and I made sure that there would be shuttle service to and from the festivities. It’s a designated driver weekend. It’s going to be crazy hot, so things are bound to get real good and drunk/interesting at the wedding. I had to promise not to ice the groom during the walk down the aisle, so I can’t guarantee that the ceremony won’t be boring. The best part is that everyone in the wedding party is bound to go out later, so late night at the Box is going to look like a Billy Idol video. Anyway, there are a few fun looking shows out there this weekend, and the weather is going to be conducive to very little clothing. I predict that James River will look like a floating subsection of West Virginia.

Check out the weather and shows after the break!

Weekend Preview – June 11th to June 13th

Cape Town, South Africa - Host of the 2010 World Cup

Weekend Preview Time!!! Better late than never?

The weather is a little unsure for this weekend, but there’s still a lot of fun stuff going on. If nothing else, you can stay in and watch the USA tear shit up in the World Cup. Our first game is against England tomorrow, 8:30PM (South Africa Time). Tonight’s weather is supposed to be great, so I hope to see everybody out on the mall with a drink in hand. Paper bags are encouraged. I’m working on something pretty awesome towards the end of this month, so if you’ve just about given up on us by now, be sure to at least check back before the end of the month. For now, check out the weather and event listing below the break!

I love her.

Ohhhh man….. yesterday was Cinco de Mayo… and I’ve yet to recover my ability to make words good. I’d apologize for this pitiful attempt at a Weekend Preview, but I’m really too hungover to care. There’s not a ton going on this weekend, but some of the shows that are coming through are pretty high quality.

Weather:

Friday – Mostly Sunny – 85/70

Saturday – Partly Cloudy – 79/49

Sunday – Sunny – 67/47

Now, on to the shows!

mmmmmmm....... beeeeeeeeeer.

Ok, let’s kick this thing off with a quick weather forecast:

Thursday – Sunny – 75/46

Friday – Sunny – 84/63

Saturday – Partly Cloudy – 90/70

Sunday – Isolated T-Storms – 86/66

That’s right. Three perfect days of sun, and you get to fall asleep to the sound of distant thunder on Sunday. Mother nature got laid.

But, for serious…

This weekend is gonna be huge! There are a ton of events to pick from. Check out the guide below!

There’s no room for rock stars at The Fest

For the past few years, in preparation for the weekend of the UF vs. UGA football game, I’ve been packing a few key items before I catch my southbound flight: a well-worn beer koozy, Advil Liqui-gels, comfortable walking shoes, and earplugs. My flight doesn’t take me to Athens to see the big game; it takes me to Gainesville, where all of the Gators have left for the weekend. While my weekend generally includes the consumption of massive amounts of PBR, the only football that I’ll be watching will be on the TVs mounted to the wall at Flaco’s, as I wait for my Cuban sandwich between sets at The Atlantic and Durty Nelly’s. While some spend the last week of October getting ready for Halloween, I’m in training for The Fest.
