A Musical Weekend
Like music?
I love music!
This past weekend I enjoyed a musical event on campus and an off campus, local musical event.
Friday night was Southern Maine Open Mic Night. It is a free event on campus, currently held in the Hang. There were six performers including my favs Chad Haynes and Ben Kilcollins. It was a great mix of music and there was also free Starbucks (they graciously sponsor the event)! So, you could grab dinner from the Hang and chill out to listen to some great music, new stuff and covers. It is one of my favorite events and they have one almost every month with different performers.
Then, Sunday night, Union Church of Biddeford Pool had their annual Fall Cabaret! The evening was $15 and it included a wonderful turkey caserol dinner, desert, coffee and tea, and then almost two hours of jazz! It was quite the deal, and if you like jazz, well worth it too! (Union Church is a small denominational church in Biddeford Pool, less than five minutes away from campus, and the offer many events throughout the year, as well as service ecery Sunday morning at 9:30.)
Other than that, it has been raining since Sunday, I have a test, a first draft of a term paper and a presentation all on Thursday, a conference all day Saturday, and another paper due on Tuesday! Thank God next week is Thanksgiving and I get a five day weekend!!!
