The Rick Perdue Tribe will be at The Boulevard Tavern at 10 PM, admission is free with a Tedeschi Trucks Band ticket from The Clay Center.

RFC faves, The Diablo Blues Band, return to the Empty Glass at 10:30 PM, for what I’m guessing is a five-to-seven dollar cover.

Thursday

The HallowEast Murder Mystery happens, and ArtMares continues. See here for details.

“Maul of the Dead” is staged at WVSU at 7:30 PM and 11 PM. You can read about it here.

1377181_238500626306265_1280519918_nThird Eye Cabaret, at 8 Capitol Street, hosts a night of Blues, with Johnny Compton, Raymond Wallace, Tiffany Talented, Kristen Costello and Bobby Altman. I would imagine that The BrotherSisters will also be on hand for a night of great music beginning at 8 PM. There is no cover but donations are accepted.

Mojo’s night of free comedy continues at 9 PM at Mojo’s, near the Mound in South Charleston.

Friday

ArtMares continues with the booze and schmooze reception, featuring music from Sean Sydnor. Details here.

Kanawha Players’ production of “Night of the Living Dead” resumes Friday at 8 PM. Admission is $12, $10 for seniors and students. This show sold out Friday and Saturday last weekend and is probably destined to be the theater event of the fall season in Charleston.

“Maul of the Dead” is staged again at WVSU at 7:30 PM and 11 PM. If you want a great Zombie double-bill of live theater, go see “Night of the Living Dead, and then head on down to WVSU for the 11 PM show of “Maul of the Dead.” What would really be cool would be if the cast of KP’s show went to WVSU in full makeup.
