End of  October greetings, music fans. I’ll be honest, Halloween really isn’t my cup of tea but have at it with whatever you do to ring it in. Speaking of holidays, my Christmas/holiday spirit has also been off these past few years so I’m going to try really hard this season to get it back. A step in the right direction is learning that one of favorite all-time singers, Carol Noonan, is working on her second Christmas CD. Speaking of Noonan, I was just at the Stone Mountain Arts Center last weekend for one of the best Dar Williams performances I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen quite a few). By the way, Stone Mountain Arts Center, HUGE congrats for hitting the 5 year mark!

On a quick non-musical but local awesomeness note, I recently saw Elizabeth Peavey’s one-woman show “My Mother’s Clothes Are Not My Mother” at the St. Lawrence Arts Center. It was show # 3 on a series of 4 sold-out shows and it was absolutely sensational. The good news is that  three more shows have been added! The Friday, Saturday and Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. Not to be missed!
