Pecha Kucha + Wine + Food
March 6 | 7:00 p.m. | $40
A recipe for success: take short presentations by 21 speakers (consisting of the movers and shakers of Charleston's foodie scene), add all-inclusive snacks and libations, stir in a pinch of philanthropy (a portion of the proceeds benefit both the Culinary Institute of Charleston and the Art Institute), and voila, you have Pecha Kucha 21, hosted by Charleston Creative Parliament.

Lee Bains III & The Glory Fires | Debbie and the Skanks
March 6 | 9:00 p.m. | $5
Alabama's soulful Southern rockers Lee Bains III and The Glory Fires are another band on the way to Savannah Stopover, but—lucky us—they decided to take a quick trip to the Holy City first. They will be sharing the bill with Columbia's Debbie and the Skanks. It's gonna be a high-energy rock 'n' roll party.
