Now online, a feature story on legendary Omaha musician Dereck Higgins (Read it here). The story focuses on Higgins’ new CD, Dereck 2, which he’ll be performing at a gig this Saturday night at the Omaha Healing Arts Center. Some of you may have seen Higgins’ performances this past fall with only his guitar and a drum machine. Well, he’s formed a band for this show that includes John Friedman on guitar, Bill Eustice on bass and Jeff Tegtmeir on drums. Also on the bill are rock upstarts One Mummy Case (of which Higgins also is a member), and Omaha power popster (popstar?) Richard Schultz and the Miracle Men. You’ll save three bucks if you make your reservations for the show now at 345.5078. Otherwise it’s $8 at the door.

Tonight it’s Epitaph recording artist Motion Picture Soundtrack down at Sokol Underground with The Working Title, Veda and This is Me Smiling. 9 p.m., $14.
