Saint Louis local bands, take notice. Our friends, The Blind Eyes, have concocted a clever and (very) welcome way for us to simultaneously celebrate two of our favorite aspects of summer: live music and potluck dinners. Taking place at Off Broadway on Saturday, July 31th, the first annual Popluck afternoon affair will feature food for sale by Black Bear Bakery and more importantly, hours upon hours of Saint Louis’ (and Columbia’s) best local talent performing live for your general merrymaking pleasure.
Seth Porter, of The Blind Eyes, promises barbeque, and while you don’t technically have to bring anything to the potluck dinner, you’d be a lot cooler if you did. Break out Grandma’s potato salad recipe, k?
Doors are at 12 PM (yes, NOON, so get your dancing pants on early, folks). Show starts at 1 PM. Tickets are $10. Get ’em here.
