So you’re probably wondering…

…how did Hall & Oates end up getting featured in the middle of Halloween event frenzy?

Well let me tell you! First of all, “Hall & Oates” and “Halloween” start with the same 4 letters. But more importantly, it’s good to support your favorite artists no matter what time of year it is. And Hall & Oates (even a tribute band version of the duo) have what it takes to perform timeless, transcendent music - whether it’s spooky season or otherwise.

Plus, why work on a newsletter featuring some of the region’s top events if I don’t get to throw in a personal preference now and then?

(I’m sure Amelia will have something to say about this when she’s back from maternity leave. But for now, you’re stuck with me!)

You make-a my dreams come true,
Sean
