I’m actually a week overdue on this one, because I meant to post this the weekend after the Delmarva Chicken Festival. Hopefully Tom Larsen and his Lookin’ for Trouble band don’t mind the wait. As I...

Subtitled: the 5th Annual (Save the…) BreastFest edition. I’ve been to all five of these events and I have to tell you this was probably the most successful. They finally got the two ingredients they...

If you can’t tell the lineup without a scorecard, it’s probably good that I begin with this photo. I always find it very helpful that the folks who run the Good Beer Festival put this board up,...

Last weekend was a good weekend for local music buffs, particularly in the Long Neck, Delaware area. I’ve often wondered if those people who live by American Legion Post 28 there sit outside on the...

I know it’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these, and what once was a monthly (or sometimes weekly) feature is down to two or three a year. As a guy I know would say, that’s a shame. I also know...

(As opposed to Order 6-D6, a long-defunct local group I really liked.) I’m not going to stretch the definition of local too much with this much more brief look back at the Autumn Wine Festival, but it...

This year I write this message with a heavy heart. It’s not because the world seems to have gone more haywire or the political world is its normal maddening self. Instead, it’s because a member of the...

Normally this (more and more) occasional series talks about local groups in a local setting, but it’s not unprecedented for me to discuss a group that’s from outside our region. Such is the case with...
