Fans of dirty rock ’n’ roll with blazing solos, saucy hooks and more posturing than should be allowed can rejoice: Black Saddle Hookers are going to be rocking their favorite 10th Street haunt this weekend. The trio features a veritable who’s who of the local music scene, including T-Bone Hooker (vocals and bass), Gavin Zappatica (guitar) and John Cavanaugh (drums) and have been known to have special guests like Skid Jones join the fray when the spirit moves. Sacramento’s own rude-boy reggae outfit the Scratch Outs close out the night’s festivities. 1901 10th Street, www.facebook.com/
