this charming band

Give thanks for The Smiths at a post-turkey tribute concert.

The title may be a bit misleading, but both vegetarians and carnivores are welcome at 330 Ritch's annual "Meat Is Murder" Thanksgiving party. The event name has less to do with animal rights and more to do with the Smiths, whose 1985 album of the same name will be played by cover group This Charming Band.

For all you vegetarians out there or for the folks who just want to party after a mellow Thanksgiving day, head downtown for the annual Meat is Murder tribute to The Smiths. This Charming Band will perform all of your Morrissey favorites along with music from The Mozzer and DJs Aaron and Nako.

The Smiths always managed to put a morbid twist on their lyrics, but we love them anyway. So, on Thanksgiving, why not celebrate the band who sang, "… and the turkey you festively slice is murder." Now in its ninth year, the folks at Popscene bring us a party to help dance off of those calories from the big meal. After a live set by local Smiths cover group This Charming Band, DJs Nako and Aaron will play Britpop into the wee hours.
