Big doings this week as all the planning that goes into the Turning Leaf Fall Festival comes to fruition with an amazing all day concert event. If that’s not enough to keep you occupied, we have great shows coming to venues like Chaplins, The Sandtrap, Sunnybrook Ballroom and The Bridge Inn.
The Big Stages are heating up and if you’re a fan of classic rock, here comes Rush, Styx and ASIA to area venues. Don’t forget a cameo by Soap Star/Musician Rick Springfield. Newer groups like Three Days Grace and John Legend are also weighing in and if you’re looking for different, there’s always the Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson show. I like the Indigo Girls this time because I am a fan of their music and harmonies. Locally, I’ll be at Turning Leaf ALL day turning knobs and rocking out, see you there.
Do you want to see your band or venue listed here at WTIM? Send an email to redneck@berksmontnews.com with the particulars (at least two weeks in advance) and we’ll get it out there.
