Welcome to the Weekend Music Preview, wherein we help you remember the past and look forward to the future. This weekend's a doozy, replete with noise and psych-rock and jazz and hip-hop and tributes. Let's do this.
Weekend Music Preview: MJ, Noise, and The Thing
Weekend Preview: When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth, Trailer Space Reopens
It's hard enough being in a band and worrying about people ripping off your sound, or ripping your album off the internet, without also having to worry about your musical gear getting ripped off as well. Sadly, that's what happened to our own When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth. Whoever stole their stuff no doubt has a karmic ass-whumping coming to 'em, but for now, the band's pals have stepped in for a benefit show at Beerland to offset some of the cost of buying all new shit.
Weekend Art Roundup
Don't miss the great art related events taking place this weekend! Here's a rundown of some of the highlights:

Weekend Music Preview: Foot Patrol, Blowfly at Emo's Inside [Win Tickets]
If you're the sort of person who likes their music fun, funky, and not too serious, Emo's has a show for you this evening. Inside, the foot-loving, foot-tapping Foot Patrol combine their funktastic sound with the "original dirty rapper," Blowfly, who will be bringing his nasty raps and parody songs ("I Wanna Be Fellated") to the stage.
