The Black Pirate hosting 33rd Cover Show
The Black Pirate Pub is hosting its 33rd Cover Show from Thursday to Saturday this week.
There are 15 acts, with each band covering one artist or group and performing an entire set in their style.
Event Planner Jimmy Wiggins says these Cover Shows are some of the most fun he’s had in 20 years of promoting.
“You just see a whole room of people singing and dancing along to these musicians on stage, and the vibe in the room is…it’s unreal,” Wiggins said. “It’s hard to describe. It’s just really fun.”
Tributes will range in genre from pop to metal to rock and roll. Lady Gaga, Leonard Cohen, Rage Against the Machine, Evanescence, and Rush are among the bands and artists that will be covered. Click here for the full schedule and list of performers.
“It’s nonstop music,” Wiggins said. “As far as I’m concerned, the heart of the music scene is at Black Pirate right now.”
Admission is $15 at the door.
