The Palace at Midweek

What's going on? That phrase, is not only one of the most common American greetings today, it is also the title of a famous rhythm and blues classic by Marvin Gaye. Marvin Gaye, was "the most successful recording artist" for Motown Records during the sixties. He also was a multi-instrumentalist with a three octave vocal range. Today we celebrate not only Black History month, but also the memory of an American music legend. I know you may ask yourself....Why was the black history moment so rushed??? Well today has been my most busy day this week and is also a very close friend's birthday. So, this post will be much shorter than the others. However I do want to remind everyone in Fort Smith, Arkansas that Wednesday is "Open Mic" night at Hero's Food & Spirits in Downtown Fort Smith. If you enjoy a laid back environment inexpensive food and drinks, and some homegrown entertainment then Hero's is your place. The midweek, "Open Mic", is hosted by pianist and singer/songwriter Caleb Mendenhall. Well I have said my peace, if you are headed downtown to Hero's and remember to stop in, don't forget to tell them that I sent you.
