 9 PM, $5 This group swings harder than one of Mike Tyson’s right hooks. The band takes familiar sounding standards that Jazz fans love and gives their own fresh arrangement to them without losing the original feel and swing of the chart. Everything from Basie to Monk, from Buddy Rich to Dizzy is in the band’s book.

7 PM, $10 A transplanted Okie who now calls Nebraska home, John Walker has been performing his brand of country-blues music for more than 30 years. His musical roots go back to Bob and Johnny Lee Wills, Woody Guthrie, Hudie Ledbetter, Bukka White, Brownie McGhee, and numerous small-town Oklahoma churches where he grew up singing songs like "What a Friend," "Oh Happy Day," and "Just a Closer Walk with Thee." His own songs reflect that upbringing in their laid-back accessibility and Southern rural themes. They combine foot-stomping rhythms with smooth melodies and expressive lyrics, all to the distinctive accompaniment of a unique finger-picking style of guitar playing. He has played those songs in auditoriums and bars and churches and festivals and living rooms and hay fields across the country since the sixties. John Walker is a long-time traveler with the Nebraska Arts Council's Touring Artists program and has performed at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts as Nebraska's representative to the Center's State Days concert series. |

 8 PM, $5 "Ready the Destroyer is a Chicago-based [band] in the vein of Built To Spill, Dinosaur Jr, The Afghan Whigs, Fugazi while turning an ear toward Yellow Card, Green Day, etc. Neill Miller (vocal/guitar) ... and Nicolas Lama (drums) balance the nascent grit of furious rock with a direct melodic approach and build it to the gutpunch in these songs. This is definitely a band to watch out for. They've been honing their sound with solid local and regional shows ..."

8 PM, $5 An ageless sound and infectious, youthful energy are at the very core of Baltimore quartet Fools & Horses - featuring Matt Hutchison (vocals/guitar), brother Tim Hutchison (drums/vocals), Kent Warren (bass/vocals), and Steve Herrera (guitar/vocals). Fools & Horses distinctive Modern Rock sound combines the melody and pure, organic power of the 90’s with the intensity of the lyrics and kinetic rhythms of today’s hits. Fools & Horses albums and live shows are often compared to those of Coldplay, the Foo Fighters, Travis and Cake. Voted Best Band of Baltimore by the readers of the Baltimore City Paper for two straight years, and named Best Modern Rock Band, and Fan Favorite by the Washington Area Music Association, Fools & Horses’ music is charming its way onto the national and international scene. Television has embraced the band’s catalog of songs, most recently the Playboy Channel, FUSE Network, MTV, A&E, E!, ESPN and USA
