You could call it a free show, or you could call it three shows for the price of one. Either way, $15 gets you an evening with M. Ward, The Watson Twins and now, hip-pop musician Tim Fite at The Pabst Theater Saturday, July 19.
The alt-country Watson Twins, who Jenny Lewis helped launch with 2006's "Rabbit Fur Coat," open the show at 8 p.m. M. Ward, the indie rock darling who is most recently making a splash with the pop duo She & Him (with actress Zooey Deschanel), performs next.
By 10:30 p.m., all ticket holders are invited to the afterparty with Fite, who was once called "the next Beck." What makes it a "party?" Your ticket stub entitles you to one complementary PBR Tallboy!
General admission tickets are $15 at the box office, on the Web at www.pabsttheater.org and www.tickets.com, or by calling (414) 286-3663 or (800) 511-1552.
OnMilwaukee.com staff writer Julie Lawrence grew up in Wauwatosa and has lived her whole life in the Milwaukee area.
As any “word nerd” can attest, you never know when inspiration will strike, so from a very early age Julie has rarely been seen sans pen and little notebook. At the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee it seemed only natural that she major in journalism. When OnMilwaukee.com offered her an avenue to combine her writing and the city she knows and loves in late 2004, she knew it was meant to be. Around the office, she answers to a plethora of nicknames, including “Lar,” (short for “Larry,” which is short for “Lawrence”) as well as the mysteriously-sourced “Bill Murray.”
