Happy St. Patrick’s Parade Day weekend! It’s going to be a frigid few couple of days, so bundle up and responsibly enjoy a couple cold ones. For those unwilling to bother with the cold, there are plenty of other indoor weekend events so your bodies and hearts can stay warm.
There are plenty of eclectic concerts, including a couple blues acts and two appearances from American Idol’s Crystal Bowersox. Crass comedy at Funny Bone and a guy in a dragon suit at Turning Stone will get you rolling out of your seats. Symphoria takes on the Mozart-heavy soundtrack of Amadeus, and the Crunch and Comets take to the ice.
