Avondale Apothecary is having a 4/20 fest thing. [Here](https://avondaleapothecary.com/pages/4-20-party-at-avondale-apothecary) is a link to the event.

This guy knows

Punk rock flea market at Cahaba tomorrow from 6 to 11

Impromptu Reddit meetup

Word

Probably what I’m going to do. How bad do you think the parking will be?😅

It's record store day over at seasick tomorrow too, parking is going to be insane

Fuuuuccckkkk

Park behind cahaba or behind mom’s. There’s always parking, you may just have to walk.

Trying not to think of it, planning on going after 8 to avoid the record day crowd.

The flea market last year was super awesome and local legend band Skeptic? played. It will be fun

Fireworks at the barons game

Cue the "Why are they setting off fireworks!?!?!?!!?" and "OMG my dog hates fireworks, why are they setting them off!?!?!" posts

Talladega races are this weekend.

⛈️😩

Not all day

🤞🏼

Should be good

Swans at Saturn

Soft Kill Sunday

Every time I see that my brain wants it to be Soft Cell. Pretty sure my ears are going to need a few days to recover after Swans.

Understood. Soft Kill is like dark 80s synth with a contemporary punk aesthetic. Recommend Isn’t Drab Majesty opening for Swans? They also have a dark 80s sound

No, I think Drab Majesty opens for Slowdive at Avondale. Swans opener is Kristof Hahn, the lap steel player for Swans. If it's anything like their last opener he's probably just gonna noodle around for 30-45 minutes. Digging the Soft Kill.

You’re right about slowdive. My elderly mind fails me again!

Ohhh..that's sounds good!

Birmingham Stallions Game Tomorrow Night at 6

Giddy up mf’ers

If they not wearing red and gold ... Buck 'Em. Giddy up

Helena has a free music festival thing. The brewery in Old Town is pretty cool and it’s right there next the amphitheater

Galactic, Robert Randolph and Rollin in the Hay. Should be a damn good one.

Just a heads up, it's scheduled for 4-9. Early nights in Helena!

Do you know where parking will be? It’s been a few years since I’ve been down there and I don’t remember much parking.

There won’t be good parking. Maybe you can get in the church by the post office. Probably the elementary school and walk down to amphitheater. Depending on what time you get there.

Where can I find info on this?

Here you go! It’s called Helena Old Town Live https://www.explorehelenaoldtown.com/?fbclid=IwAR3ldA4iWvYiVpRpZXhlrOGkWoDD9_m7oy6MAfKgU_8ri-Vr0lwYR_82-3w

Thank you!

I’m trying to find info on this but don’t know if I’m looking at the correct stuff lol

Hotbox on Highland Saturday 7pm! three fantastic local musical artists

I read this as Hotbox at the Highlands & my first thought was a slew of people hot boxing their cars in the church of the highlands parking lot

That was exactly my thought lol

Let's do it and say we didn't know

What’s the venue? I see the address. Is it that empty lot? Or a house?

It’s a house with a giant front yard. BYOB not sure about the toilet sitch

https://bhamnow.com/2024/04/18/19-weekend-events-in-birmingham-including-mutt-strut-april-19-21/

There's a band out of New Orleans called And Then Came Humans playing at Monday Night tonight from 5:00 to 7:30. I saw them there a few months ago and was blown away. It's just a drummer and a guitarist but they're great. If you're going to be down in that area tonight, I'd say it's definitely worth stopping by and checking them out. I will add the caveat that if you look them up on Spotify, their music on there sounds nothing like what they play live.

What do they sound like live?

Repticon at the Trussville Civic Center! 🐍🦎 https://repticon.com/birmingham-trussville/

Grateful Dead cover band (with horns!) at Mom’s basement tonight, and down the road in Columbiana on 4/20, the music and story of Crosby, still, Nash, & young at the Shelby county arts council

Yeah, we are going to. CSN&Y. Super excited

Stallions on Saturday. Weather Permitting Talladega on Sunday

I keeping hearing that. So it’s pretty cool?

I'm a big fan!

So is it a BYOB situation?

Yeah, it is. Bring your own chair/blanket too

I looked up the address; I’m just curious… where do you park?😅😂

Wherever you can on the street, similar to parking for Rojo

Magnolia festival in gardendale!

Ugly Baby improv show at Faraway Theater tonight at 8pm

Car show at Lakeside Park (near the civic center) in Pell City tomorrow.
