One small block in Houston, one large music scene - especially this coming weekend. This event is not recommended for the faint of heart, new age-types or the extremely un-coordinated (there will be dancing, foolish, crazy, too-hip-to-care, dancing - hell, brang your uncoordinated ass on - we are bringing ours). Both local, both about the most fun you can have with your clothes on - tequila shots not recommended. Two local bands will be taking over the block, starting with Disco Expressions on Friday night. Yes, disco - bust out your polyester, bring on your wide collars and satin and stuff, get ready for some kung fu fighting and do the locomotion all the way to the Continental Club, from 10:00 p.m. until you don't have to go home, but cannot stay there - or 2:00 a.m., whichever comes first. Oh but wait, fans of music made popular WAY before 1980, there's more! Saturday, same bat time, The Allen Oldies Band (our personal favorite) will be cruisin' on over to The Big Top at 3712 Main for some delirious fun and general mayhem. Bring a penchant for peanut butter and your best good mashed potato moves, and some folding money for the bartender(ress). We double dog dare you to have a bad time at either show - just try, TRY!!!

The Aqua Velva, Houston's only BEST B-52's cover band takes the stage at 3700 Main Street at 8:00 p.m. for some amazing '80's dance music. Folks, if you haven't seen them perform, and you like the B-52's even a little bit, you are missing out. Following them up...
