This week, the weekend starts on Thursday night with a free concert by Justin Jones and the Driving Rain. The concert is tonight at Rock n Roll Hotel at 13th and H St, NE. If you haven't been to the H st corridor before, check out my previous post about it here.
As previously mentioned, Jones is a country band that has some bluegrass twangs in his earlier songs, a bit more mainstream these days. Doors are at 8, music starts at 9, and this IS a 21+ only show, which is unusual for the RnRH. There are no tickets, just the first 400 people get in, so I'd get there closer to the 8pm side of things - no opening act is listed. Friendly reminder, don't plan on walking from Union Station.
Tomorrow night, there are just a few tickets left for Oktoberfest at the German Embassy. Normally I don't include black tie events costing $149 in here, but this has an open bar, serious german food and good music, so it looks like it may be worth it.
Yeah it's a bit of a drive, but the Shenandoah Valley Wine and Balloon Festival is going on throughout the weekend in Millwood, VA. Its ten bucks to get in, balloons launch around 730a and 430p, wind permitting.
Lewis Black is doing a routine at the Patriot Center at GMU on Saturday night. $30 gets you in the door for all the snark you can take.
And of course, Sunday we have the Redskins playing another crappy team that we hope they don't let sneak by a la the Rams. Ahem. 4:15pm
