Beginning tonight, and continuing every Thursday until September 20, various permutations of Pleasant Grove will be at Double Wide — in the business, they call that a residency. Tonight’s shindig will be a solo performance by the group’s Marcus Striplin, and the following three are billed as the Pleasant Grove Preservation Society, which apparently means the band’s other singer-songwriter Bret Egner won’t be coming up from Austin and various special guests will be filling the void. I could probably walk down the street and ask drummer Jeff Ryan who will be joining in on the festivities, but I’d rather just wait and have someone e-mail me, then update the post later. That’s the kind of work ethic inspired by a newly Wii-obsessed boss.
