About The Lounge Lizards

A very musical post-Thanksgiving weekend

By Katie Wedell | Tuesday, November 22, 2011, 11:56 PM

Happy Black Friday! If you’ve gotten your fill of standing in lines at the mall, then it’s time to party. Here are some weekend bar best bets.

Rubi Girls

The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is the biggest bar night of the year, and the Friday after is every retailer’s most frenzied day. But for Dayton’s most notorious dancing, singing, joke cracking divas in drag, it’s all about the Saturday after Turkey Day.

For more than a decade, that’s been the night the Rubi Girls hold their annual benefit for AIDS Resource Center Ohio. The event is dubbed “The Show Must Go On” so you can expect just about anything.

Where: Masque, 34 N. Jefferson St., Dayton

When: 9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 26

Tickets: $20 reserved seating tickets are available at arcohio.org. General admission at the door will be $10.

Canal Street Tavern’s 30th Birthday Hootenanny!

Live music has been wafting out the doors of Canal Street Tavern since 1981. To celebrate, they’ve made an open invitation to anyone who has played the venue in the past to grace the stage once again. Local music junkies could be in for some great surprises.

Where: Canal Street Tavern, 308 E. First St., Dayton

When: Doors open at 8 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 26

The bite: $5

More info: canalstreettavern.com

Legbone

In other anniversary news, punk rock outfit Legbone is turning 20, which means the band is almost old enough to have a drink at Blind Bob’s. Raise a nearly legal birthday toast during their anniversary show.

Where: Blind Bob’s, 430 E. Fifth St.

When: 9:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 26
