How did everyone fare over the weekend? Did Irene leave any Midnight Sun readers without electricity? Did it make you cancel any plans? In local music, the Silopanna Music Festival had to be canceled and Journey and Jimmy Buffett concerts both had to be rescheduled. At least, in Fells Point bars took the storm in stride. Did anyone head to Max's?
This weekend, there won't be any hurricanes, tropical storms, and hopefully, no earthquakes, to intervene with your nightlife plans. The week starts off slow then shifts into high gear - har har - with the Grand Prix on Friday, which will be a major headache, for traffic anyway. Elsewhere: Pictureplane, White Life, Stevie Nicks, and Journey.
On Monday, Pictureplane, Butt Stomach (Dan Deacon and Kevin O'Meara's noise project), Lizz King, Narwhalz, and Mark Brown perform at the Depot, 1728 N. Charles St. 9 p.m. Cover is between $5 and $7. Note, from the event's Facebook page: "LIMITED CAPACITY!"
On Tuesday, Golden West Cafe, at 1105 W. 36th Street, hosts a Super Smash Bros. Nintendo 64 Challenge. 10 p.m. $3 sign-up fee.
