The Kaiser Report... Musical happenings for the week of October 3...

Finally the cooler weather has arrived! Well not quite yet but it does not mean that the music season is not in full swing. Thanks to Laraine Kaiser for keeping us abreast of many of the musical happenings about town. 

This week also marks the 9th Anniversary of First Friday which means there will be lots of arty party for everyone. The crowds will be massive as First Friday has been reloaded with new and exciting changes that will be unveiled this week. So stay tuned!

Have a great week everyone...
