The Golden Bubbles

Saturday, July 4^th

Perhaps the kitchiest all-local concert bill of the year, the fun loving boys of The Golden Bubbles have rounded up similarly dance and grin friendly acts (Super Collider, Chelsea Boys, Kredentials) to help them herald the arrival of their debut album, "A Good Time Was Had By All." Hailing from the small Southern Minnesota town of Wells (pop. 3,000) Golden Bubbles come off like a wacky and overly caffeinated small town sock hop house band (albeit one where the Hawaiian punch has been spiked with amphetamines). Occasionally too zany for their own good, Golden Bubbles nevertheless show plenty of promise in their Ben-Folds-meets-Queen rock theatrics blueprint. (9 p.m., $5, 21+)
