Free Big Brother and the Holding Company Concert in Less Than Two Hours!

Posted By on Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 1:28 PM

Big Brother and the Holding Company is playing a free concert at 3 p.m., today (Friday, Sept. 17) at the 17th Street Market. More information here.

Joplin's old back-up band still puts on one hell of a show, or at least they did when I saw them play a few years back. They played a benefit at a remote school house in Northern California, and I was one of 30 or so people who showed up. I left with a T-shirt, a CD and the knowledge that rockers from the '60s get down in a most serious fashion.

Big Brother is also playing tonight at the Rialto with opening act Top Dead Center. More information here.
