This week’s featured event:
The Revolution returns to the First Avenue Mainroom this Sunday for their final Minneapolis performance for the foreseeable future. Join us for a night to celebrate the music that has left an indelible legacy on Minnesota, and on the world. Drummer Bobby Z. relayed these sentiments to the Pioneer Press, “We’re not trying to replace him, we’re celebrating him. We’re sharing the stage with the audience. These songs belong to everybody and we want you to sing at the top of your lungs.”
