Opening up for them will be Doctor Strange and A Band of Mysterious Bandits. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Doctor Strange, he used to go by the name Nereo II and just underwent a name change to Doctor Strange. This combination of folk with spoken word should mean a fantastic show.<\/p>\n<p><em> Come down to the WECC this Saturday, November 10<sup>th<\/sup>. Doors are at 7:30, Doctor Strange at 8, with The Crooked Brothers taking over at 9.
