If you don’t have plans or the cash to hit the big Belle and Sebastian/Yo La Tengo show tonight at the Mann Center, then I better see you at Morgan’s Pier for R5’s free concert series with local indie darlings Work Drugs and Norwegian Arms. Let’s be honest. Summertime and drinks by the water surrounded by yachts is what Work Drugs’ music was made for, well, that and sweet, sweet love-makin’, which might happen too if you come out. ;o) The guys and gal recently dropped their rad new full-length album Mavericks so this evening is a good opportunity for you to hear your favorite tunes from it live and grab your own copy directly from the band. Opening the hang will be weirdo folksters Norwegian Arms, who play with such passion that you can’t help being pulled into their world. You’ll also get a chance to check out what they’ve been working on lately since the release of their debut LP Wolf Like a Stray Dog. It’s a locals only night at Morgan’s Pier - just the way that we like it! Morgan’s Pier, 221 N. Columbus Blvd., 9pm, Free, 21+ (Photo by Brandi Lukas) - Q.D. Tran
