Here on NC State’s campus, the atmosphere is pretty dreary right now, with exams looming overhead like ash from Eyjafjallajokull. (Too soon?) This being the week before dead week, we’re all accepting caffeine intravenously and stuffing our gourds with useless information that we’ll remember just long enough to take the test (before it’s gone again, forever!)
But this Thursday offers a healthy reprieve from end-of-semester perils, with another great free Local Beer Local Band show featuring Kid Future and The Light Pines.
And what’s even better is that I’ll be interviewing both on Thursday evening from 7 to 8pm.
Kid Future has promised an in-studio performance, and The Light Pines may very well do the same, so be sure to tune in on 88.1 FM or at wknc.org/listen.
And I’d better see you out at Tir Na Nog with a local beer in your hand on Thursday night!
The semester is winding down here at NC State, and what better of a time to celebrate then this Thursday at Tir Na Nog and WKNCs Local Beer Local Band night? This week’s lineup is first-rate, with performances from Kid Future and The Light Pines. If you are having a hard time convincing yourself that this show is free, I don’t blame you. Stay tuned to wknc Thursday at 7 p.m. for interviews with the bands.
The show starts at 10 p.m., 21 and up.

Independent Weekly’s Grayson Currin describes Baltimore band Nuclear Power Pants as “heavy psychedelic pop, with thick group vocals piled over sheets of synthesizers and stacks of riveted percussion.” Tonight’s Local Beer Local Band at Tir Na Nog is the second of a three-night gig featuring Nuclear Power Pants with Baltimore neighbors Height and local boys Lonnie Walker.
Local band, I Was Totally Destroying It, has a song featured in a Brazilian cell phone service provider’s advertisement. The band announced on their blog yesterday that the “Come Out, Come Out” off of their latest album “Horro Vacui” was the song featured.
In response to the song featured in the commercial, the band posted, “I have to say, as a musician, it’s a very flattering thing to have a large company believe that a piece of material that you wrote can help them sell their product. Fun stuff!”
