Mood Music: Rio Grands – “Beverly”

Now that the flurries have stopped falling and the ice has melted away, it’s time to start planning how we’re going to celebrate the ending of the last immensely shitty 365 days. To help us get in the mood for what will most likely be a heavier than normal night of boozed debauchery, we’ve got some Rio Grands coming out of the speakers in preparation for their blowout bash.

They’ll be taking over Alberta Street Pub on the 31st, playing two sets that are sure to get the party started. Their first one, starting around 9:30pm, will be all original songs. The second goes from 11:30pm through the arrival of the new year, with them honoring our fallen heroes David Bowie and Prince, as well as taking on some songs by the Cars, the Police and other 80’s hit stars. 

Laser beams, helium filled inflatable animals, fog machines and DJ Toggle Beats will all most definitely be in full effect, so stop by. It’s free and will be a lovely addition to your night’s plans.
