You would really have to be completely out of the loop to not realize that this weekend is the return of the Cover Up, a three-day event that used to be the biggest end-of-the-year party, to Kings. I expect this weekend's festivities to have a joyous homecoming feel rivaled only by that of the opening night Bandway show. The strange thing this year is that I've heard almost nothing about who is playing. Usually by this point I have a good idea about some of the better covers being planned. If you have some info you'd like to share, feel free to post it here, but I ask that you only reveal who is playing, not who is being covered. I personally like to know in advance, but a whole lot of folks out there really do prefer to be surprised.
Other great shows this week:
Thursday: Double Negative and Nine Fingered Thug at Tir na Nog (free)
Friday: Pipe, Caltrop and Double Negative at Nightlight (DN had to cancel); Righteous Fool and Black Thai at Dive Bar; and Tom Maxwell, Bustello and The Breaks at Local 506
Saturday: The Carolina Chocolate Drops at Lincoln Theatre
Monday: Justin Townes Earl at Cat's Cradle

i had to put out feelers today, but i heard TV Knife on Friday, and Proof and Mike Dillon Saturday...
I know Brooks Carter from Bandway will be playing--not sure if Bo will be joining him.
Here's Friday's schedule: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=172724702750949
Anyone heard anything else about Saturday's schedule yet?
what's the cost to get in to the show? they don't have any info on their site.
I have not heard anything else about tonight's schedule. I think I paid $6 to get in on Thursday.
