We’re a little light this time due to an early Thanksgiving Deadline, this is why you should get your stuff to me two weeks in advance! Hey! Check out Monkey Bizzness trying to bump Jim Meck as the busiest act in Berks County. Watch for Steve Walker to take a swing at this as well in the coming weeks. In case you didn’t know The Sandtrap is now called Creekside Sports Bar & Grill and that’s where you can catch up with our friends Go Commando Saturday night, they’re coming off a very cool Special Olympics event so get out there and give them some props. Not sure where we’re going to land Thanksgiving Eve yet, but be sure we’ll be out and about. And with the passing of Thanksgiving you know New Year’s Eve is right around the corner so all you WTIM friends out there with gigs that night get them in ASAP so I can get them on. AND if you need me Thursday I’ll be napping on the couch …
Do you want to see your band or venue listed here at WTIM send an email to tdietterick@21st-centurymedia.com with the particulars (at least 2 weeks in advance) and we’ll get it out there.
