Weekend Planner: Breaking Free From the Humble Abode

St. Michael-Albertville’s weekend entertainment guide to music, snow and cures.

 

 It’s Thursday, cabin fever has reached its peak and you just want to shout from the top of a mountain.

But since this area is slightly altitudinal-ly challenged, save your yodeling days for the Alps...St. Michael Patch has found a few other options for you to try out this weekend.

 ROAD KILL BAND

Where/When: Buffalo American Legion (304 10th Ave. S) on Friday, Feb. 11 from 8 p.m. to midnight

Why Go: Support a local band and get your foot tapping to some great music from the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s!

 

ROY DAWSON & THE BOOTLEGGERS

Where/When: Pubhouse 19 (formerly Major's, off LaBeaux Avenue in Albertville) Friday, Feb. 11 from 9:30 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.

 ST. MICHAEL-ALBERTVILLE BOYS HOCKEY

Where/When: Face-off is at the St. Michael-Albertville Arena on Saturday, Feb. 12 at 7 p.m.
