Observations, Reminders and a Ron Sexsmith Update

April Fool's arrived a day early by way of a completely demoralizing snowstorm and I'm hoping that, having had the last laugh, winter will finally piss off into the sunset (or wherever seasons that have outstayed their welcomes go) and that we can look forward to some warmth and some good news for a change. I do know that - at least on City Hall's books - it's almost patio season and we've got to start trying to remember how to reassemble our beautiful deck. Never fear, we'll figure it out.

Poltz Kicking Ass On His Way to Halifax - Kelly Joe Phelps Quietly Selling Out

Steve Poltz has been touring his way towards The Carleton for the last two months and he'll finally be here next week - Monday, March 16th & Tuesday, March 17th. On his way, he kicked some serious performance ass.

Danny Michel - WOW! - and a New Weekly Carleton Feature...

DANNY MICHEL TONIGHT!

Well, we somehow managed to make it through another media-driven "Storm of the Century" episode in Halifax last night and The Carleton was a room in love with its headline performer, the amazingly talented Danny Michel. It's been too long since Danny was last here and the thunderous applause following the end of his second set aptly punctuated that fact.

March Entertainment Madness

My apologies if you are getting this a grillion times but it's come to my attention that some of you only received the scrambled version of this newsletter. Delete away if you've already received this and I promise it won't ever be screwed up again! (with any luck).

Yikes, I Can Hear the Sound of Snoozing...

Actually, that's not gentle little snort-filled snoozing sounds I hear, it's flat-out snoring! Whoa, that's loud!

2 Musical Giants at The Carleton This Month - Don't Snooze and Lose!

It looks like double-whammy time for me. Not only did the underdog Cardinals not pull off the epic upset of the Steelers in the Super Bowl but it also looks like - according to the weather news this morning - the predicted balmy weather we were supposed to get this week isn't going to materialize. To add insult to that disappointment, the original prediction has been replaced with a "weather warning" about yet another snowstorm for tomorrow.
