A mixed evening (as they say, “COME EARLY OR STAY LATE!!!”) of what is billed as “spoken word / pirate jazz”, at the corner of Broadway and Main (Lugz at 2525 Main Street), the Creaking Planks enjoy the unusual distinction of having the most staid name of all the performers on the bill, sandwiched between Sacred Mint and Cosmic Cobbler. (We have since been joined by Johnny McRae, whose name is harder to poke fun at.) $6. Doors at 9 pm; we should be taking the stage around 9:45 pm, if all goes according to schedule, for a first set of about 45 minutes… then returning for further strangeness later on.
