Embassy Theatre have announced the lineup for the next installment of Down the Line, and it’s a killer one. On Saturday, Feb. 24, the historic Embassy stage will make way to four local acts paying homage to music legends, and this time around the theme is ’90s Grunge Seattle Sound. 

Down the Line 18

w/The Craig Guy Band, The Snarks, Octopussy, Pink Droyd
7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 24
Embassy Theatre
125 W. Jefferson Blvd., Fort Wayne
$20-$30 • (260) 424-6287

Set to perform DTL 18 are The Craig Guy Band playing the music of Soundgarden, The Snarks covering Hole, a reunited Octopussy rocking out to Alice in Chains, and Pink Droyd doing a tribute to Pearl Jam. 

Now that, my friends, will be something to see. 

Maybe the best part of it is that general admission tickets are only $20. There are also early entry access tickets for $30, which gets you into the venue 15 minutes early. That way you can snag yourself a good seat. 

Tickets for Down the Line can be purchased at fwembassytheatre.org, ticketmaster.com, and at the Embassy box office.
