Like it or not, weeknights are becoming bigger and bigger extensions of Columbus nightlife. There's a whole bunch of new mid-week theme nights popping up, as illustrated by tonight's lineup:
*Just learned today that Savana's is hosting Tropicana Thursdays. Happy hour is 6-8, dance lessons are 7:30-8:30 and there's mojito specials all night. I've never been, and won't be able to go tonight, but I hope to check it out next week.
*I still recommend Viva la Diva at Houlihan's (800 Front Ave.). From 6:30 to 9:30, you can get special girly cocktails for just $5.50 each.
*The Cove , a Columbus-based rock band, performs at Soho Bar & Grill. The show starts at 10 and it's $5 (ladies free).
*Go to Broad Street Blues and catch a performance by house band Peggy Jenkins and the Rhythm Roosters. It starts at 9 and cover is $5.
*Finally, Fountain City Coffee hosts its usual free open mic beginning at 8.
Party on!
