Sometimes, though, we do miss it. But not today!

THE HUSH SOUND AT THE TLA
Join The Hush Sound, The Cab, Steel Train, and The Morning Light tonight at the Theater of the Living Arts for their Dance Across the Country Tour. Sure, the tour name is über-lame, but the bands promise a decent live show. With an 8:00pm start time, the show will let you get the rock out and still leave you some time to fit in a proper Friday night bar crawl.
WHO: Anyone, 21+ to drink.
WHERE: The TLA, 3rd and South Streets (map)
WHEN: 8pm
HOW MUCH: $16. Get 'em here.

IMPROV COMEDY: THE N CROWD
If you'd rather laugh than sing along, maybe you should heed our repeated suggestions to hit up the N Crowd for some interactive hilarity. Afterward, you can do the whole Old City bar crawl thing, instead of the South Street version you'll likely undertake if you go to our first listing.
WHO: Anyone!
WHERE: The Actors' Center, 257 N. 3rd Street (map)
WHEN: Doors open at 7:30pm, Show starts at 8pm
HOW MUCH: $10. Get 'em here. Note: If you buy them online, RSVP-style, they will only be held until 7:50pm, then they're fair game for buy-em-at-the-door types.
