Theodore's Blood Signs EP, which gets a release tonight at Off Broadway

It's a huge weekend for St. Louis music, with Theodore releasing its latest EP at Off Broadway tonight and Fister doing much the same up at the Firebird. No one's releasing anything at the Pageant, but you can see four of St. Louis' finest for free on the big stage (just be sure to print your ticket before you go). Fans of sitting will find plenty to appeal to them between tonight's Jonathan Edwards show at Old Rock House and Candy Dulfer tomorrow at the Pageant. Rock and roll.
