Gig roundup: Those Darn Accordions turn 20
Earlier this summer Shank Hall hosted Polkafinger, a Brooklyn-based polka band with a Milwaukee connection (that's Richard LaValliere to you). Now, the East Side venue hosts a veteran polka act from the other coast. As part of a 20-city tour celebrating 20 years behind the bellows, San Francisco's Those Darn Accordions play Shank on Tuesday, Aug. 25.
