WEDNESDAY LOWDOWN: ‘Guess Who Just Got Back Today’
Fair warning: Tonight there’s going to be a jailbreak somewhere in the (Old) Town. Specifically, the rumor is that a bonafide Thin Lizzy tribute band will grace The Siren’s Song Tavern stage along with some other local bands. If that’s your kind of thing, you can find details on that and other midweek joys in your Lowdown below.
