So which influential band would you die for? Tonight offers a mouth-watering choice of Hoot Nights for two legendary bands. Stubb's Inside hosts acts such as The Christophers, Robbie and the Robots, and The Wailing Walls covering the plethora of material put out by Oklahoma's eccentric pop outfit, The Flaming Lips. A complete line-up can be found on do512. We're leaning towards a similar event at Emo's Lounge with alt-country legends Wilco being the object of affection. Spearheaded by the Georgian Company (formerly Just Guns) and The Mercers, the line-up of Wilco devotees includes Golden Bear, Lalaland, and Shane Bartell. Pack up your boxing gloves and pick your poison -- either event should make for a stellar night of covers and general shenanigans.
