Honey, it’s the Weekend: The Pass record release at Headliners; Save the Hogan’s Fountain Pavilion music fundraiser at Diamonds

There are still many tricks and treats to be found this weekend.

The first days of November are loaded with some spectacular events.

Whether you are looking to keep the Halloween party going, or wish to sit back and have a laugh, Louisville’s entertainment scene has got you covered.

Dudes, and dudettes please prepare yourself for another wacky weekend in Louisville.

• The Pass Record Release Party at Headliners on Fri., Nov. 2

The Pass is upping the ante, and looking to take their ’80’s synth pop sound to the next level as they prepare to release their second album this weekend at Headliners Music Hall.

The album is titled “Melt,” and it’s promised to be a fun sound with a more serious tone than in the past. You can get a copy in advance if you show up to the 18-and-over show on Friday, and there are a bevy of reasons to be in attendance besides witnessing the fun rock sounds of the Pass.

Like what?

Well, The Pass has some awesome support from two outstanding local acts in The Deloreans, and Skyscraper Stereo. I must express my delight in seeing a multi-genre bill as everything from rock to hip-hop is represented.

The Deloreans are one of Louisville’s most well regarded rock acts. They possess as much flavor as they do talent, and if you listen to their jam “Buffalo.” you’ll realize this is a band has established their own niche in the scene. Harmonies, killer drums, crunchy guitars and witty lyricism will lead this band to a prolonged future in the scene.

Skyscraper Stereo is Louisville’s hottest hip-hop act, alongside Jalin Roze, and is a blast to see live.

The multi-rapper group is a hybrid of street rap and indie hip-hop with some pretty fresh sample usage.

Overall the two openers will get this party started right for The Pass, who will surely conquer their night in the spotlight.

This is the weekend’s top musical event and will be one heck of a party.

I encourage you to break the spell of normalcy and head down to Headliners and see some of this dear city’s most unique and talented local acts.

Show starts around nine, doors at 8 p.m.. $10

Headliners is at 1386 Lexington Rd., on the edge of the Highlands.

• The Roast of Obama and Mittens at The Bard’s Town.

Are you sick of Romney’s lies about Jeep jobs being sent to China? Can’t stand Obamacare ads?

Are you lethargic and believe in the conspiracy that both candidates are in a malicious effort to take full advantage of the American populous and ruin their everyday lives?

WELL!!!

There is an event for you this weekend because The Bard’s Town is hosting a comedic event of electoral proportions.

“The Roast of Obama and Romney” is happening on Friday, and it will surely make a full mockery of our candidates. There will also be some very special guests as the angry propagator Rush Limbaugh, the dead and buried Osama bin Laden and the dim-witty Sarah Palin are all set to appear and shed some light onto this year’s candidates.

Come have a drink, a laugh, and a jolly good time for the price of $10. Show kicks off at 10 p.m.

The Bard’s Town is at 1801 Bardstown Rd. in the Highlands.

• She Might Bite headlines Save Hogan’s ogFoundation Pavilion at Diamonds in the Highlands.

Many Louisvillians have been under the beautiful Redwood teepee that is Hogan’s Fountain Pavilion, and this weekend there is an event at Diamonds Pub to help renovate a Louisville landmark.

All proceeds from this weekends musical benefit and silent auction will go towards renovations and it is a definite bang for your buck as She Might Bite, Leigh Ann Yost, Secret Beats, and Thirteenth Sun and many more are set to play.

Many local artists and businesses have donated items for a silent auction and there is already $60,000 in donations to save Hogan’s Fountain. Come out and experience the scene in addition to help maintaining a Louisville icon, and a memory maker.
