THURSDAY LOWDOWN: Cruz’n Eureka! Bronze! Emo Night Tour! More!
There’s more happening this Thursday than is standard, OK? This year’s Cruz’n Eureka kicks off with motorheads participating in a poker run from the Wharfinger Building to Bear River Casino. NCRT‘s A Midsummer Night’s Dream begins its final weekend. It would appear some DJs are going to spin mid-‘aughts emo music in the Van Duzer Theatre? OK. And SF-based sci-fi soundmakers Bronze will headline a night of music at The Miniplex in Arcata.
Sample the latter in the clip above and then scroll for full details in your Lowdown below.
