Lowdown: Finish Ticket at ATL Tonight; Listen to Their KSLG Interview (AUDIO/VIDEO)
One more day ’til your Halloweekend begins. But first! Tonight, Bay Area radio favorites Finish Ticket play two shows at the Arcata Theatre Lounge — the first (7 p.m.) is all ages, the second (10 p.m.) will be of more interest to those in need of alcoholic beverages. Both shows feature opening band Picture Atlantic and a costume contest.
Earlier this month, the boys called up KSLG — the main sponsor of tonight’s show — and yakked it up with DJ Sherae O’Shaughnessy. Absorb their banter below.
