It’s a block party, but it’s also something of a new mini-festival that will be taking over downtown: Trifecta Block Party is a multi-day, multi-venue event that features a number of performers including Kidalgo, DGS Samurai Champs and more. No cover? No problems!
If you’re looking for something a little more on the hardcore/punk side of things, there’s plenty of action at the usual haunts, with Vangelis hosting If I Look Strong; You Look Strong on Friday, and Man Meat on Saturday. Also, check out, Nick Faye and the Deputies at Amigos on Saturday if you like your prairie folk-rock ambling and amped.
