What Am I Doing Today? Getting Ready For The Walking Dead Season Finale

When The Walking Dead first aired I didn't pay much attention. Hello? Zombies aren't really my thing. I was a Game of Thrones addict. Loved Dexter. Orange Is The New Black is sooo good. Rome is still one of the best series I've seen. Everyone on House of Cards is scarier than TWD zombies. Sherlock is one of the most perfect, amazing, wonderful series EVER. (If you haven't watched Sherlock I strongly suggest you do.) I started watching The Walking Dead (TWD) with my son as a sorta mother-son bonding thing. He liked all things zombie and I'll admit to rolling my eyes when he suggested we start the series on Netflix. Now, I can't get enough. This series draws you in. So much so that I'm writing about tonight's season finale. If you're not interested in TWD, I understand. But if you are, share your thoughts, hopes, dreams in the comments! Note: I have not read the comics. Everything written below is just me guessing.

RIP: Popsy Dixon

The Holmes Brothers, and the world, have lost the great Popsy Dixon.  Passed away of cancer at the age of 72. His butterscotch tenor/falsetto and drumming style will resonate in my mind and heart until the day I die.  Also, he, Wendell and Sherman were the nicest artists I ever brought to the Arden Gild Hall.  A very sad day for me.  Please remember him along with me....

The older brother of the Temptations' David Ruffin (one of the greatest soul singers of all time), Jimmy Ruffin  recorded one of Motown's most unforgettable hits.  When I saw "Standing In the Shadows of Motown" at Theatre N, this was the song that closed the movie, and this was the song that we ALL sang as we left the theatre...

‘Bulo Presents Charlie Hunter/Scott Amendola w/the Dinkendo Family Band Tonight!

Shameless plug, and I'm totally not ashamed. I'm presenting a superb concert tonight at the Arden Gild Hall. If you show up, first drink's on me. Charlie Hunter is an amazing instrumentalist and plays a hybrid guitar/bass that has seven strings. Yes he plays both the bass and guitar parts at the same time!  He and drummer Scott Amendola have extraordinary telepathy with each other that can only happen after years of playing together.  They have been called the 'jazz scene's funkiest duo' for good reason.
