So the phrase is usually Spring Forward, Fall Back but down at the Ugly Broad Tavern things are moving forward. New items have been added to the menu and other upcoming events should mean a trip down Denison to join in the fun.
First of all, Dean has moved from behind the bar into the kitchen. […]
When I walked in the door just now from gathering signatures for the referendum, this email from Lois Moss was in my inbox asking me to promote this Sunday’s Walk+Roll Cleveland event. It appears as an outreach to the community they are asking for musicians and artists and others to participate in this […]
What a show! The Drums drumming down Euclid Avenue led by Marcos Santos were incredible. Who knew that those drummers would exorcise the “rain demon” that plagued last year’s festival. A whirlwind flew down Euclid Avenue accompanied by its own drummers of pelting rain. Canopies flew and people ran but it was gone as quickly as it […]
I stopped in to see Sherry Perry at The Ugly Broad yesterday, and she gave me a menu for a new restaurant over on Memphis Avenue. She told me that two of her friends had opened the Memphis Eatery in the old Taco Bell at 6212 Memphis Avenue. After Taco Bell moved up the […]

I just received a postcard announcing a new show of this wonderfully creative artist called Side by Side at MOCA Cleveland. The Public Opening is Friday, January […]
I know that song won’t be played tonight at our event in the Tower Press Building because my partner George Nemeth is in charge of music, and he tells me often that the music of the ’70’s isn’t music. I tell him that this is just one of those things that we will have to agree to disagree although […]
Have I just labeled myself a nerd? Have I dated myself? Frankly, I don’t care. I just found something out that I didn’t know, and the first words that popped into my mind to describe it were “WAY COOL” . In my capacity of main scheduler for Meet.The.Bloggers I am looking for a place in Grandview Heights […]
I apologize for the radio silence on my blog for the past week but for most of that time I have been experiencing excruciating back pain. Once or twice a year, I throw my back out and I am down for the count for at least two weeks.
