Hippity Hop

At The Echo, see Tackhead (the house band for the Sugar Hill Gang) reunited at 8:00 PM. The band's musical style as well as "their reputation for an unpredictable live show will make this performance an event not to be missed." Tickets are $20.00. (18+)
At 7:00 PM at Amoeba Music, see former Plimsouls frontman Peter Case performing songs from his new album, Who's Gonna Go Your Crooked Mile?. The in-store is, as always, free.
