Weekend Wonders

I felt like I hit a brick wall in the middle of exercising yesterday. Several hours of sitting in the Florida heat eventually rendered me useless at work. I'm sick, and not very stoked about the situation. There's too many awesome events blessing the Jacksonville area this weekend. I've already made plans to check out the Riverside Arts Market. My schedule for today includes overdosing on sleep, soup and green tea, so I can actually enjoy the weekend wonders. Here's some events you may want to check out:
Brew at the Zoo
Brew at the Zoo offers drinks, live music and local cuisine. This event is great! Eat, drink, and explore what the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens has to offer. $75 tickets may be a little pricey, but the proceeds are dedicated to feeding the animals, and if you work the system you can have a LOT of drinks and food. The event takes place Friday from 7:00p to 10:00p.


Boobsapalooza 2012
Another epic event for an even better cause. Boobsapalooza invites you to enjoy ten bands at Lynch's Irish Pub. According to The Florida Times-Union, "proceeds will go to breast cancer research, to fund Bands Against Breast Cancer's education and outreach programs, and fund the Rick Wilson Memorial Mammogram Fund." Check it out on Saturday. The music starts at 12:00p.



EOTO
If you still have a craving for more live music after Boobsapalooza, you could walk down a block, and check out EOTO at Freebird Live. EOTO is comprised of Jason Hann and Michael Travis of the String Cheese Incident. But, this isn't your ordinary jam band. It sounds more like the Grateful Dead playing with the rhythmic sounds of an arcade. They play Saturday at 8:00p.
