Friday, Sept. 7

Every year this happens. The first weekend in the fall that the Razorback football team plays an away game is nutso in Fayetteville with events. Everybody plans their thing for that weekend, and this year is no exception.

In other words, good luck figuring out what to do, y’all.

Wanna see a show? Walton Arts Center kicks off their season with several performances of the unique show, Late Nite Catechism. Also in live theatre, TheatreSquared has another hit on their hands with their adaptation of Once. (Read our review here).

There’s plenty of music on Friday night, too, with songwriter Daniel Champagne at Sunrise Guitars, awesome locals Adam Cox and Dana Louise with Oklahoma songwriter Kayln Fay at Stage 18, locals Rozenbridge at Smoke & Barrel, there’s a rock show at Backspace with Mama Would Be Proud, Phlegs, and Ankle Pop, and there’s a Grateful Dead/Talking Heads tribute at George’s Majestic Lounge (featuring members of Groovement, Forgotten Space, The Squarshers, Funk Factory, and Opal Agafia and the Sweet Nothings).
