Lords of the Universe

Lords of the Universe play the 331 Club on Saturday, December 5, with Drinkin' Spelling Bee opening. It's a double bill that starts early and runs late into the night, so you've got a full evening of live music rather than just a single set.

Drinkin' Spelling Bee takes the stage at 7 PM, and Lords of the Universe follow at 10 PM. If you're planning to catch both, that's a three-hour gap between the first act and the headliner—plenty of time to grab a drink, hang out, and let the night settle in before the second half gets going. If you only have eyes for the main act, you can just show up for the 10 PM set.

It's worth keeping in mind what kind of place the 331 Club is. They run a dense calendar of live-music nights and recurring series that keep the room moving throughout the week: the Roe Family Singers every Monday; Womenfolk Radio Concerts on the third Monday of every month; Lenz & Frenz on the last Wednesday; and Cross Pollination, a monthly gathering of songwriters from different genres on the third Thursday, which they bill as 'the Large Hadron Collider of genre mixers.' They also host Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School on the second Sunday of every month, along with a Movie and Music Trivia night. This Saturday night is just one more piece of that rotation.

So, the details: Lords of the Universe at the 331 Club in Minneapolis on Saturday, December 5. Drinkin' Spelling Bee starts at 7 PM, and Lords of the Universe take over at 10 PM.
