This is a crazy busy week and it seems like every week is
like this now. There are a couple of hall
of fame events this weekend. As featured
in the November ModestoView magazine, there is a great group of local hand-made
craft and clothing makers that will be on display with wares for sale at the
HandBorn show on the 17th.
There will be music at Deva and great holiday gifts at Concetta. Go check it out. 2007 MAMA Winner Jon Valenti has his CD
release party at Fat Cat Sat Night and during the day, get ready for ski season
with the ski swap at Centenary
Church.
Friday night at the State, there is some serious comedy at
the State Theatre with Geechy Guy that is a regular on Bob and Tom in the
mornings that is aired on 104.1 the Hawk and Clint Black brings his country
music to the Turlock Community Theatre or you can vibe to a Pink Pure 209 Party at the Fat Cat. In other news, we are counting down the last
weeks of the Modesto Farmer’s Market and the Shadow Chase running club goes for
a run and the Sierra Railroad has a Sunset Train. Saturday afternoon, the Graffiti Bowl will be
played at the MJC Stadium. Saturday
night, Michael Feinstein plays the Turlock Community Theatre and the legendary
New Christy Minstrels at a sold out show at the Gallo Center. The Townsend Opera Players present Die
Fledermaus Saturday and Sunday at the Gallo Center.
Sunday morning, shake it off with a bike ride with the
Stanislaus County Bike Club leaving from Marie Calendars and Sunday night,
there is a Hawaiian Tropic Bikini contest at the Modesto Center Plaza (really,
I’m not kidding) and at the Fat Cat, you can rock it with Audio Stagg or you
can dance to classic rock at Crocodiles or dice it with Jay Smith for Gong Show
Karaoke at Speakeasy. The Ahn Trio is on
the big Rogers Stage at the Gallo
Center and you will be
totally amazed. Monday night, we end up
at Clayton’s for Blue Monday Jam sessions.
