If you don't mind seeing the Hold Steady without alcohol, you might be able to get in to see the band Saturday night down in Northfield at St. Olaf College's campus club the Lion's Pause. The gig was a late addition to a short tour that also brings them to Fargo on Sunday. I just called the number to inquire about tickets and was told they aren't selling them online anymore, but there will be tickets on sale at the door for $20. And they're on sale for everyone, not just students. Here's the info page on the show.
