Wait, is it Thursday already? You bet! And that means it is time to solidify your weekend plans. Fortunately, if you’re in Huntsville, you have a ton of cool stuff to choose from over the next few days.

The Orion Amphitheater will be hopping this weekend with two big shows booked — Jack White on Saturday and Black Keys on Sunday. Both should be amazing shows! Check out what’s happening in and around the Rocket City this weekend:
