\n\"The<\/a><\/span>The Seaside Highland Games came and went taking those gorgeous men and beautiful women in kilts with them. I stopped in to check out the Celtic music and I wasn\u2019t disappointed; crowd favorites were The Angry Brians, Tannahill Weavers and Highland Way, I\u2019m certainly looking forward to next year\u2019s event and may even be bold enough to try haggis, but probably not.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Plan B Wine Cellars on their 3rd anniversary!\u00a0 They partied in fine form with Jen Staves and the Bluzfish on Sunday, October 11.<\/p>\n

Local hip hop artist, Michael Crawford drops his new album \u201cEscape Artist\u201d on October 16 with a CD release party at the Tavern. I was sent an advance copy and yeah, the man\u2019s got talent.<\/p>\n

Frost and Fire, a heavy metal festival will take over Bombay\u2019s on October 17th with such bands as Manilla Road from Wichita, KS, Ashbury from Tucson, AZ our very own Night Demon over a half dozen more bands. There will also be a meet and greet with Tim Baker and Robert Garven of Cirith Ungol. Doors open at 4:30 pm.<\/p>\n

Mike Toler is the official new owner of Amigos and he\u2019s brought in his good friend Luke O\u2019Dea to help out with booking bands, promotion and social media. I\u2019ve been assured they plan to offer a variety bands 365 days a year. It\u2019s all good news with the exception of losing Bernadette who will be returning to England this month. Mike is throwing her a farewell party on Saturday, October 17, so swing by to say goodbye and wish her well.<\/p>\n

Three-time Grammy winner Tom Scott returns to Squashed Grapes October 24, and it will be another first for the Grape when they offer two seatings in one night. Both are only $10 with 7 and 9 pm show times.<\/p>\n

Oh! And I have to share about the extraordinary night recently at Squashed Grapes when Bruce Forman performed the Red Guitar.\u00a0 The place was at capacity, and you literally could have heard a pin drop the audience was so captivated. The second set Forman brought up his special guest whom he had teased earlier on social media stating he couldn\u2019t say who it was for \u201ccontractual reasons.\u201d\u00a0 Well it turned out to be Tierney Sutton who sang requests the entire second set.\u00a0 Five time Grammy nominated and the 2005 Jazzweek Vocalist of the year, Sutton heads up the Tierney Sutton Band\u00a0 who have headlined the Hollywood Bowl, the Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall. Yeah, it was intense and a privilege to witness.<\/p>\n

And finally, don\u2019t forget Kiefer Sutherland will be at W20 at the Watermark on Friday, October 23.\u00a0 Ten-dollar tickets will be available the night of the show. Doors open at 7 pm.<\/p>\n
