Killer talk, local tunes and outlaw country on the Palouse


Happy humpday, folks! You can find myriad ways to get out and about to celebrate making it halfway to the weekend in our event listings and Staff Picks

Here are a few of the highlights for Wednesday, Jan. 28: 

LIVE MUSIC | People on the Palouse have it really good on Wednesday as the excellent Whitey Morgan and the 78s drop by John's Alley in Moscow for a show. If you like old-school outlaw country, Morgan is for you. This is a fine excuse for a midweek road trip for anyone in Spokane or Northern Idaho. Here's a bit of Morgan doing his thing: 
LIVE MUSIC | In Spokane, Mootsy's is hosting a fine show, too, courtesy of Mirror Mirror, the Smokes and Loomer. 

COMMUNITY | Humanities Washington is hosting what is sure to be an intriguing discussion in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack in France. The Think & Drink session hosted by Shann Ray will discuss "killer cartoons" with political cartoonist Milt Priggee and David Fenner, an Islam expert from UW.
