Indianapolis this week: Little Feat, Parmalee, Mavis Staples and more

A farewell tour at the Murat, a country night at 8 Seconds and a double shot at the Vogue: the shows worth planning around in Indy, Nov. 9–15.

Indianapolis has 32 shows on the books this week, and the middle of the week is the busiest stretch. Little Feat's farewell run reaches the Murat on Wednesday. Mavis Staples is in Carmel on Thursday. The Vogue has two loud nights back to back. Here is the week, night by night.

Wednesday, Nov. 11: Little Feat at Murat Theatre at Old National Centre, 7:30pm. This is The Last Farewell Tour, which the band announced last November as the start of its gradual retirement from full-scale touring after more than five decades on the road, as Consequence reported. The title nods to 1975's *The Last Record Album*. Tickets run $63.50 to $506.20. Tickets.

Wednesday, Nov. 11: Béla Fleck at Clowes Memorial Hall, 7:30pm, on his My Bluegrass Heart tour, the same night as Little Feat.

Thursday, Nov. 12: Mavis Staples at the Palladium, Carmel, 7pm. One of the week's essential tickets, at the Payne & Mencias Palladium at the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets.

Thursday, Nov. 12: Joshua Radin at The Tobias Theater at Newfields, 8pm, with Kathryn Gallagher. Tickets.

Friday, Nov. 13: Parmalee at 8 Seconds, 8:45pm. Tickets run $17.25 to $49.70. 8 Seconds Saloon, out on North Lynhurst Drive, has run under that name since 1999 in a 34,000-square-foot former bowling alley, and has been an ACM Club of the Year nominee more than once, according to the Indianapolis Business Journal. It is 21 and over. Tickets.

Friday, Nov. 13: The Afghan Whigs at The Vogue Theatre, 8pm, with Night Moves. Tickets.

Saturday, Nov. 14: Corrosion of Conformity at The Vogue Theatre, 7pm, with The Sword and Hippie Death Cult. The Vogue's second loud night in a row. Tickets.

Saturday, Nov. 14: Little Big Town at the Egyptian Room at Old National Centre, 7:30pm. Tickets.

Saturday, Nov. 14: Fruition at Turntable, 7pm. Tickets.

Sunday, Nov. 15: Bryan Andrews at Turntable, 8pm. A country close to the week. Tickets.

If you can only pick one, Wednesday is the night. A band calling it a farewell tour is telling you not to wait for next time.
