benatards tonight!

Once, while driving through the city with my mother, she spotted a store catering to the needs of bears and bear lovers (Bear Supply? Grin and Bear It? Right to Bear Arms?), and she craned her neck excitedly, trying to note the address. “A bear store! Where are we? I want to come back later when I have more time to SHOP!” (My mother has a lovely stuffed, Steiff-style bear family, with its own rugged farm house, a little pot-bellied stove, pies made out of bottle caps, a pinecone Christmas tree, etc., which she sets up on a shelf over the holidays.) Me: “Oh, mom. I don’t think it’s that kind of bear store. It’s more like a…sexy bear store.”

Which all just to segue: The bears are in town! Which means that Marco’s show at the Eagle Tavern tonight should be just that much more packed with fun, and hair! Here are all the details:

WHAT: The Benatards (a one-night-only rock and roll battlefield, featuring members of The Fivehundreds, Waycross, and Dirty Power)
WHEN: Thursday, February 15, band goes on at EIGHT!
WHERE: The Eagle Tavern
398 12th Street @ Harrison

See you there! I’ll be the one standing next to Jill, who’s flown in just to bear witness.
