Road to Rocktober (Part One)
I know, I know, it’s only July, but our Rocktober calendar is starting to fill up! It’s crazy how busy September/October will get in Minneapolis. Rocktober is so big that we have to start spotlighting bands from now to October.

Something for the Weekend: Palmfest 2025
Announced only a week ago, Palmfest 2025 is taking place this weekend. Just happenstance, I am temporarily in Minneapolis for the recent Minnesota Yacht Club Music Festival and this would be a good way to officially say goodbye to Palmers Bar. As you know with the recent news that the bar will permanently shut down in September 14, 2025.

Minnesota Yacht Club, Harriet Island (July 19, 2025)
With no real rain in the forecast for Day 2 of the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival, things were looking clear for the full slate of bands. Organizers and Festival staff kept things moving smoothly, which was impressive given the large number of people in the relatively small Harriet Island Regional Park.

Cinema of the Macabre: Rabid Grannies at Emagine Willow Creek, Plymouth (July 14, 2025)
As a big movie fan and collector, particularly of the horror genre, so I am delighted to see such a good, or rather rabid, fanbase for the Cinema of the Macabre. This is a horror movie series, curated by Tim Alan Holly (who will also introduce the movie with some notes about the film), that takes place every Monday at Emagine Willow Creek, in Plymouth, and as a tourist, I attended the July 14th showing of Rabid Grannies.
