I thinking of going to this Yardbirds show down at Lewis & Clark landing (also featuring Matt Whipkey and Anonymous American and two other opening bands). Here’s what I could dig up on how the event works: Admission to the show is free, however, fans are encouraged to donate a few dollars to the Omaha Food Bank. Volunteers will be on-hand during each show to collect donations. Gates will open at 4 p.m. and music begins at 5:15 p.m. Vendors will be available to sell food and beverages (outside food, drink or pets are not allowed). You are allowed to bring lawn chairs or blankets. Visitors can park in a limited number of free spaces or take a retro Metro Area Transit bus from downtown city parking garages to the landing. You can also park and ride for free at the Gallup Campus located 1.25 miles north of the concert site. The “landing” is located directly next to Rick’s Cafe Boatyard and across from the Heartland of America park.

Also tonight, an evening of artsy indie noise rock with Fromanhole (myspace) at O’Leaver’s with Minneapolis band Self Evident (myspace) and Life After Laserdisque. $5, 9:30 p.m.

Thunder Power!!! plays at The Saddle Creek Bar with New Jersey indie band Fairmont (myspace) and Sight Unsound. $5, 9 p.m.
