Sat, Feb 12, Young Dubliners
PowerHouse Pub, 10 p.m., $12
If you’re planning on catching one of Southern California’s greatest proponents of both Irish music and rock, you best show up early. For some ungodly reason, the Young Dubliners are opening (yes, opening) for cover band Superlicious. One would think that the band’s years of touring experience would make them a veritable headliner in any town by default. However, given the economic downturn that has greatly affected the live-entertainment sector, it’s no surprise that these billing fiascoes happen. While their most recent output is 2009’s Saints and Sinners, the band is anything but idle. 614 Sutter Street in Folsom, www.youngdubliners.com.
