Instead of going to Bloggers’ Poker Night with the chance of beating Bim at the jackpot, I sort of worked some and then headed to the CCP to experience La bohème. I’m going to come clean this early on in the article by admitting that whenever I hear an aria being played anywhere, my eyeballs [...]

Speculations Regarding the Eraserheads “One Night Only” Concert

There are speculations and I want to present some more regarding the Eraserheads‘ “One Night Only” Concert originally scheduled on August 30, 2008 at The Fort.

What if this doesn’t fly as planned?
