Mootsy's 21st birthday weekend feat. Von the Baptist, Pine League, Cursive Wires

Hard to believe, given its seemingly eternal presence in the Spokane downtown scene, but Mootsy’s has only been rocking and serving up beverages for a couple of decades. This weekend, the venerable dive bar finally hits adulthood with a 21st birthday bash, featuring two nights of killer tunes from some of the best bands in the Northwest. Friday night, it’s Von the Baptist, Pine League and Cursive Wires providing the soundtrack; on Saturday, it’s Six State Bender, Fun Ladies, Dark White Light and Foxy Sluts. Hopefully at least one band can bash through “Happy Birthday.”
