The Weekend 5

"What are we going to do this weekend?" We have an answer for you! Each week Visit Indy publishes five can't-miss events for the upcoming weekend. Save yourself the trouble of checking back by getting The Weekend 5 sent directly to your inbox each Thursday morning.

Event 1 - RECORD STORE DAYRemember the excitement of shopping at a record store? You'd hold an album, sniff the fresh vinyl, read the liner notes, and enjoy the art. Saturday celebrates those days as indie stores release exclusive vinyl albums by everyone from The 1975 to Lettuce to Frank Zappa. Some  of the most anticipated include new releases from Pearl Jam and Neil Young and Crazy Horse, as well as special reissues and previously unreleased recordings. As a special salute to RSD falling on 4/20, a reissue of Cheech and Chong's soundtrack from Up in Smoke will come out on smoky green vinyl. You'll want to add to your collection because this format captures audio in a warmer, more authentic way. Click the details button for participating locations.
