This Saturday is the second of three installments for the “Maggot House Spring Review.” If weather permits (which it looks like it will), they’ll be hosting a BBQ with performances by unpredictable punk outfit Cousin Brian and Avery Rosewater, who will be providing some hauntingly beautiful psych-pop sounds. There will also be a kegger after the performances so you really don’t need to go anywhere else for the evening. Just don’t forget to bring some herbal enjoyment. Maggot House, (Please contact one of the acts or venue for more info.), BBQ at 6pm/Music at 8pm/Keg at 10pm, $3 (before 8pm)/$5 (after), All Ages – Alexis V.
