Rock Talk, Vol. IX
The concert week begins with the Toys for Tots benefit at the Mucky Duck, lots of good local acts and a great cause. The weekend starts with a party, courtesy of Grupo Fantasma at the Continental Club. If you prefer holiday music, check out Mannheim Steamroller at the Toyota Center the same night. Local boys (and girl) Skyblue 72 go on stage at Rudyard’s Saturday night, and the alternative/blue/rock outfit The Black Keys come into town for a night at Numbers on Sunday.
