In town tonight at the Aladdin is David Wilcox. Lots of folks absolutely love the sensitive and evolved Mr. Wilcox ... okay, but I really love the opener (it really should be a co-bill) - Susan Werner. Susan follows her muse in many adventurous directions, which make it hard to put her in any particular musical box - check out her last recording, Classics, on which she puts a classical music spin on pop hits from the 60s and 70s). She can do folk, jazz, pop, blues, country, and even "agnostic gospel" (check out her wonderful 2007 release The Gospel Truth). She's an outstanding vocalist, wryly funny and a thoroughly engaging performer ... 8 pm, $28
