Fayetteville’s Cletus Got Shot will play Smoke & Barrel Tavern tonight.

Tonight’s calendar is packed with options for St. Patty’s Day fun.

Between the regular Thursday list and our St. Patrick’s Day 2011 Flyer Guide, finding something to do should be a breeze.

On the green side, there’s a pub crawl spanning 17 locations on Dickson Street. Anyone “consuming” something at each location should strongly consider using a pedicab or piggyback ride after a few stops.

A couple blocks away, the Fayetteville Public Library will host a performance by local dancing troupe, McCafferty Irish Dancers, at 5 p.m. in the Walker Community Room.

Elsewhere, there’s sports, comedy, and live music including Cletus Got Shot at Smoke & Barrel, DJs at The Lightbulb Club, Steve Dimmitt at Powerhouse, and the SoNA Opening Concert at Walton Arts Center.

Lots more below.
