Four things to do around Atlanta this weekend, Feb. 27 & 28:
1. FEATURED
Rock out to Queen Nation (a tribute to Queen) with special guests Hysteria (Def Leppard tribute) tonight and tomorrow night at 37 Main in Johns Creek. [Grab a few beers in one of North Fulton's best breweries before Ubering over to the show.]
2. FREE & CHEAP
Enjoy an Oscar viewing party that you don't need to open a new bank account in order to attend. The Strand Theatre will host a screening of the Oscars in their Lumiere Lounge. Doors open at 7 p.m. on Sunday evening. [If you're willing to spend a few bucks, these Oscar parties are also worth a look.]
3. FOOD
Does buckets of fresh oysters, lobster bisque and ice cold Busweiser sound like a deliciously good time? If so, gather your crew and hit up the Steamhouse Lounge's Oysterfest. A two-day pass for Saturday and Sunday is only $20. [In need of a new brunch spot? These seven not-so-typical brunches will feed your craving for adventure.]
4. FAMILY-FRIENDLY
The Black History Month Parade in downtown Atlanta is one of your last chances to celebrate African American history in February. The parade is free to the public and starts at 1 p.m. [If smiles are what you're after, then RSVP for Puppet Brunch! The Reluctant Dragon at Venkman's from 11 a.m. until noon on Saturday.]
