Go to Aural States Fest this weekend
Not only does the Baltimore-based music blog Aural States offer engaging reviews and interviews with local and national artists -- it also throws quite the shindig once a year.
This year's shindig, officially called the Aural States Fest, is Friday and Saturday night. Tomorrow night is at Sonar and the Talking Head Club (407 E. Saratoga St.), and features performances by indie rock duo Wye Oak, Title Tracks (ex-Georgie James member John Davis, pictured), Small Sur, Lo Moda, Arbouretum and more.
Get your tickets here. At $10, it's cheap, which is always appreciated.
Saturday night is a dance party at Whole Gallery with Cex, Craig Sopo and Garrett McIndoe.

I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.
