SATURDAY, MARCH 30

Restless Spirit, Temple of the Fuzz Witch, Faerie Ring, and Crop

Portal | 1512 Portland Ave | portal-louisville.com | $15 adv, $20 door | 8:00 p.m.
Unfortunately, Marc Morello is probably better known as the guy who literally eats garbage and reviews it on Instagram as found.foodage.reviews. However, when not nomming on trash, he’s bringing the low end to some truly sick Sabbath-esque riffs as the bassist of Long Island, NY stoner metal/doom band Restless Spirit, who are wrapping up their quick five-day tour with fellow stoner/doom band Temple of the Fuzz Witch, (Detroit, MI), right here in Louisville. Sharing the stage, (and most likely the bong), are two of the area’s finest doom metal bands: Faerie Ring (Evansville, IN), and Crop, (Lexington, KY).
