Anyone else hop-ping a flight to Chicago for the HUM reunion show on Memorial Day MONDAY (the 31st)?
Here’s an early reminder for our big BEST MUSIC POLL/RHODE ISLAND MUSIC AWARDS SHOW, going down at Lupo’s on Wednesday, June 9. No cover, free local eats, spe-cial guest award presenters, and a handful of Rhody’s best live acts melting your face while slugging down the ‘Gansett tallboys. Doors at 6 pm — and did we mention this mofo is free?! Get there.
