Thursday, June July 2nd – Holy Ghost Party w/ Lexie Mountain / Amy Reid / Jessica Ashley Rachel / Amanda Horowitz

Wednesday, July 1st – Dazed and Confused
Creative Alliance, 3134 Eastern Ave. at 7:30 PM – $12 (free popcorn)
Dress like it’s the last day of the 70s and come out to Creative Alliance on Wednesday for the City Paper’s screening of Dazed and Confused. The seminal stoner comedy from director, Richard Linkater, is a personal favorite of mine. I realized this technically is not a music event, but this film is heavily influenced by the music of the late 70s.
