Popular Irish watering hole, Finnegan's Pub (1074 Joliet St.) in Dyer, is gearing up for its 20th Anniversary Party this weekend. Pub owners Roger and Pattijo Porter will celebrate the milestone anniversary all weekend as friends and regular customers pop in and out to share in their good cheer.
Giovanni Taliaferro, Director of Memorabilia Design for Hard Rock International, uncrated the âGuitar the Changed the Worldâ on Thursday. The guitar will be displayed inside the casino as part of the music memorabilia collection.
Things start on Friday as it always does, with their weekly Karaoke Night, hosted by Jim Melin. Then Saturday rocks with a live performance by veteran Northwest Indiana group, The Wind Gypsies, and for parts of this special show, the Gypsies' drummer Neil Holmquist, will step down to make room for his son Eric Holmquist to beat the skins. The younger Holmquist has spent the last several years as the touring drum tech and sometimes percussionist with the international rock band, Kansas.
