More things happening in the Bull City

Just came back from a meeting for Troika which is preparing for another great show in November and hopefully this year will be just as special as Last year...I know I am planning to make it so....Seems like everytime we turn around, the rest of the world is discovring the Triangle..Just listening to this great singer from LA who has performed with Prince, Macy Gray, and others extoll the virtues of Beyu where Marcus Anderson regularly performs..and she is singing the praise of this establishment...
And of course national acts appearing at Papa Mojo's are always talking about how great they love that establishment and this area......
Why just this weekend we had artists from LA and Atlanta, as well as local folks performing at Duo Slam which is a new form of Slam competition that was created right here and did quite well on its initial inception.........
I keep telling folks this area is blowing up....Look at acts like Midtown Dickens, Polvo, Kooley High, Ninth Wonder, the Beast, and many others taking off from right here and as the word gets out acts come from all over the country to discover our special jewel of a place....
And of course I am actually waiting for Spring and Summer when the outside concert season begins and we get to see all kinds of great acts performing outside..but don't forget that while we can enjoy great weather and great music, there will also be some great concerts taking place at our inside venues like those at Duke and NCCU, and Hayti Heritage Center, DPAC, and The Carolina Theatre....in April, I'm looking forward to checking out the whispers and Stephanie Mills..........
I'll be back to tell you more about some of these exciting events very soon....
