Austin Town Hall

I was just a wee youngling when British glam rockers The Cult got their start, but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate some throw back 80s rock.  So if you’re into that sort of thing, make your way to Stubbs on Saturday night for the experience.  Once the headlining set wraps up, head indoors for a free show (if you keep your Cult ticket) by local Austin boys Scorpion Child.  That picture alone should make you want to check this one out.

If you’re looking for some real rock n roll in your life, head over to Mohawk on Saturday night for an incredible lineup of local acts.  Both stages of Mohawk will be occupied with locals Scorpion Child, Eagle Claw, Pack of Wolves, Castle and Shitty Car Wash all performing during the night’s events.  Tickets are only at the door and things start around 9pm.

If you’re ready for a night of face melting rock for cheap, head over to Beauty Bar for a set by local boys Scorpion Child.  The shows kicks off around 10pm and will run you $5 at the door.  Fellow local rockers Ringo Deathstarr and Spain Colored Orange will be providing your opening entertainment.

If you aren’t heading to Mohawk for The Donkeys show, The So So Glos are another good option for some Tuesday evening fun at Emo’s.  The band is yet another up and coming Brooklyn based outfit who are gaining some notoriety outside of New York.  They’ll be playing along with Austin’s own Scorpion Child with doors opening at 8pm.  Best news of all, the whole thing is free!
