Weirdsville Listening Party, Tuesday Oct 29 at 7pm: 'At Home with Denny'!

At 7:00pm, on Tuesday, October 29th: it's the long awaited "At Home with Denny" Weirdsville Records Listening Party! You may remember seeing this fabulous and rare record on Davey's YouTube commercial for the record shop (which is found inside Used-on-New Books & More at 36 New Street in Downtown Mount Clemens) and also on the episode of Under The Radar Michigan which featured Weirdsville Records, earlier this year... and if you don't, that's no problem! You can check out the hilarious YouTube spot here and Episode #314 of UTR Michigan here (Mount Clemens comes in at the 14:00min mark)! 
Also, even better than just listening to this finely-produced record... Dennis Gapczynski, local musician who recorded this gem on vinyl (many years ago when he lived in Macomb County) will be coming down from his Alpena home to jam with Davey at this party! 
Davey Taylor tells us why it's cool...

What a Wonderful Wednesday!

The Mount Clemens Farmers Market will be next to the Anton Art Center in the Roskopp parking lot for just two more Wednesdays... today and September 18th,  from 3:00 - 7:00pm!

Parking is FREE for market patrons and always free after 6:00pm.

Didja know that you can get a 20% discount at Max & Ollie's Vintage Boutique just by running over there and telling them what you bought at the Farmers Market?

If that's not enough for you, Nashville in the Neighborhood will be having another FREE concert this evening on Macomb Place, between Pine Street and Southbound Gratiot, from 7:00 - 9:00pm right there in that same general area!

This isn't the last concert, either, despite what the poster says... there will be another one on September 25th, to make up for the rain-out earlier this summer!

Many of the shops in Downtown Mount Clemens stay open late for special events (like The Peanut Peddler, Gemini Moon, and Max & Ollie's, among others), so have some fun wandering around while listening to the music!

Just so you know... the Farmers Market will still be open Friday and Saturday mornings, from 7:00am until 1:00pm, through mid-November at their normal location on North River Road.

Where I Will Be Friday Night...

The Uptown Friday Night Concert series is still happening! Roots Vibrations has been voted the Best Reggae Band by the Detroit Music Awards, five years out of the last six... and they will be playing live at the Fountain Stage in Downtown Mount Clemens, this Friday evening (August 16th), from 7:30pm until 9:00pm! You can check out their music by clicking here. Don't forget that a lot of the local shops and eateries will be open late for the event. I will definitely be there!
