Blunt Club beat-juggler Pickster One is keeping things simple for his newest nightlife endeavor, Dirty Funk. “We’re just gonna be drinking beer and listening to some cool music,” he says of the event, which happens on Tuesday, January 19, at the Yucca Tap Room, 29 West Southern Avenue in Tempe. As the evening’s name portends, the music in question will be a mix of fly funk jams, as well as rare grooves and even ’70s psych rock. Dropping these tracks every other week alongside Pickster will be a few of his crate-digging pals, including Meaty Ogre, Tenski, and Brad B. from the Drunken Immortals. The music starts at 9 p.m. and there’s no cover. Call 480-967-4447.
