Las Vegas for Less: Swap meet, DJ88, free shows, cheap beer

Swap meet

DJ88

Feel the "Digital Love" with DJ88 at 8 p.m. Saturday at Insert Coins, 512 Fremont St. Cover is $5; call 477-2525.

Free shows

"What's the Matter with Kansas?" Thomas Frank once asked in the book of the same name. Well, nothing, judging by the winsome, harmony-heavy indie folk of native sons Quiet Corral. See them today and Saturday at Book & Stage at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, 3708 Las Vegas Blvd. South. The shows are free; call 698-7000.

No cover

He used to play in Christian rock bands, but now Cock Douglas is firmly ensconced on the secular side of things with his hard-struttin', hot-under-the-collar rock 'n' roll. See him at 9 p.m. Saturday at the Freakin' Frog, 4700 S. Maryland Parkway. No cover; call 597-3237.

Cheap beer

You'll excuse the swearing at "Nickel F**king Beer Night" with ridiculously cheap brews and DJ Biz: E! Munster and others at 10 p.m. Tuesday at Beauty Bar, 517 Fremont St. Cover is $5; call 598-1965.
