It’s Cinco de Mayo weekend and there’s plenty to do and see music-wise and then some! Here’s what’s happening across Northeastern Pennsylvania from Thursday, May 4 to Sunday, May 7, in no particular order.
This week’s cover photo: Kris & The Trainwrecks plays May 5 at Mohegan Pennsylvania’s Hive Taphouse…but if you miss them Friday, don’t worry! They also perform Saturday night, May 6 at the VSpot.
