FRIDAY LOWDOWN: Watch Amber Soul Smash Stuff in Advance of Friday Night Market

A note to Humboldt bands: This is how you do it. 

Why does the above video featuring local pop/soul/joy group Amber Soul smashing stuff make you more inclined to go check out their set at this week's Eureka Friday Night Market? Unclear! The answer is something something eye of the beholder. But just you try to act like you are not intrigued, OK? Maybe they will smash more things! Who can know?

(In the event you are not, in fact, intrigued, feel free to scroll your Lowdown below for other stuff to do tonight.)
