Forgive the lack of updates, readers and listeners, but it’s a rare weekend that an arts editor finds himself at a music festival-turned-wedding, and ol’ Feedsy had a bit of work to catch up on. But a hearty congratulations to the music scene’s newlywed rhythm section, a certain Young Divorcee and a dapper Hackensaw Boy!
Speaking of new unions, Ash Lawn Opera announced in a press release today that this summer’s season, once tentatively slated for the Jefferson Theater, will take place instead at The Paramount Theater. The season opens with Camelot (not to be confused with its specially processed artificial partner) and also includes The Marriage of Figaro. (Ash Lawn’s Summer Saturday and Music at Twilight performances will still take place at Ash Lawn-Highland.) View the full schedule here.
Also, I think The Paramount deserves a bit of praise for bringing a few classic rock docs to the big screen for its summer movie series. For those of you who crave a movie theater that also doles out the occasional beer, well, a domestic brew and Stop Making Sense or Gimme Shelter is a step in the right direction, is it not?
Of course, the rock flicks don’t start until August. If you need enough high voltage to last you until then, I suggest checking out Anvil: The Story of Anvil at Vinegar Hill:
