I can’t believe we’ve already arrived at the final weekend of the first month of 2012. It was fun and packed with quality entertainment and good times. This is a great sign, for in the past, a great January usually leads to an excellent rest of the year. And what a great weekend it will be.
-Clay Broome leads the roots blues and rockabilly thunder of the John Lee Hookers; Jerry on the Moon will bring splendid grooves and choice vibes; Babe’s Bayou presents a foot-stomping evening of Southern rock and country; Atlanta pop rock and Americana artist Stevie Monce returns to Rome with his band; the witty and talented combo of Ian Griffin and Stephen Smith will surely spread some delight; there will also be some opportunities to catch great acoustic artists perform your favorites with Billy Florkowski on Friday and Donny Hammonds on Saturday.
-Make sure to get out and enjoy yourself and, as always, take care of yourself and everyone else!
-Hear Bryan and Matt D weekdays from 7-9 a.m. on The Ridge 95.7 FM.
