The University of Mary Washington is hosting a free outdoor concert in conjunction with events scheduled in Fredericksburg throughout the weekend for the Marine Corps Historic Half Marathon. Whether you're in town for the marathon or just want to dance to some good music, it should be bumpin', so bring your friends to the fountain and get down.

Five funky years later and still going strong! To celebrate, we're doing it old school style, rocking a big house party in Harrisonburg. There's going to be all sort of awesome stuff going on that night, including the debut of the Spaghettifest 5 DVD, so be sure to get there early and stay late. Come have a party in the house that Spaghetti built.

Hosted by the JMU Earth Club, this outdoor music festival is good times and great vibes, don't miss it!

To all the people who came to the last show, stood in line, and didn't get in, now you're in luck. We're in the newly renovated Holiday Inn Ballroom with tons of capacity, bar stations, and good vibes. So grab your friends, load up the minivan, and get your chizzle on.

The Third Floor's Grand Opening Fundraiser
Brand new huge art/performance space located in the old Eyeclops space, this is the biggest, classiest venue around. Donations support the Fredericksburg Athenaeum and local food bank.

MMC is an eleven-year-strong conference for industry heads and regional bands. Three days and four nights feature music business panels, clinics, workshops, mentoring, trade shows, and tons of showcase performances (including yours truly). We're going to be playing on the Saturday showcase with Sparky's Flaw, IMI, and Robin Horlock Band. Register for the conference at mmc11.com or just come by for a pint. Either way, we're going to tear it up.

The recently opened 1440 Live (formerly known as Uncle Sam's) is a great new night club showcasing original music. Have you ever been frustrated knowing that your favorite regional band can't get gigs in their own home town because they don't do an all Top 40 cover show? These guys are changing that. Hosted by the same folks running 99.3 WYSK, they bring you great bands performing their own music in a rocking venue. Get in on the ground floor with this one!

In our first international show, we've teamed up with the Ski Travel Unlimited crew as the official tour band. We're going to be turning it out with college students from all over the East coast at the opening party on Wednesday, January 3rd. The rest of the time, we'll be hanging out with everyone and enjoying the many amenities of Tremblant, including:

• Adrenalined Mountain, boasting a 2,131' vertical drop over 600 acres and 92 runs
• Snowboard parks with 18 acres of ramps, halfpipes, mogul and snowblade zones
• Eight-person heated gondola
• Slopeside village featuring shopping, restaurants, microbreweries, outdoor hot tubs, nightclubs, and more
• Slopeside condo and in-village luxury lodging

At the annual Christmakwanzukah Semi-Formal, friends and family of all stripes get together to make plaid. That is, a plaid evening of dancing, pot luck dining, awesome music, and looking like a million bucks. Hosted by Cecil Conley of Fried Moose and JimiBeckBlues, this is an annual winter tradition that you don't want to miss. There will be a cash bar, so please, no outside drinks. And of course, be sure to wear your swankiest outfit.

For those wishing to spend the night, Captial Hill Suites has a group rate available. Reservations are available online or by calling 202-543-6000, simply mention the group name "Cecilfest".

This is a new venue that just opened up in Uptown Central Park, right next to the Ice Park. We've got some old friends showing up for this, but be sure to bring your friends and check out the new place.

We have some pretty backwards drug laws in the USA, and the Smoke-In is all about raising awareness and working towards reform. In addition to the music all afternoon, there will be public speakers and a rally march from the White House to the concert grounds. Express your independence and celebrate our nation's birthday in the capital!

Coming at you again on Thanksgiving day, we're up at Fat Tuesday this year. Get your family off the couch to work off some of those harvest feast pounds. Depending on your weight, dancing will burn from 350 to 500 calories per hour.

Game on, suckers. Clear your calendar and get your tent because the festival chock full o' meatballs is back. This year we are raising money for Habitat for Humanity, that awesome organization founded by our awesome former President Jimmy Carter.

Straight outta Frederick, we rush back to The Pub for an evening set. To everybody moaning about how we don't play Harrisonburg no more: We're back, so quit your bitching or we'll bum rush your next block party.

Man, this is an awesome venue! We had The Recipe out for Spaghettifest 2003, now we're happy to be invited to their festival. In terms of good atmosphere, good people, and good music, you can't do much better than this. They're an officially licensed church, for crying out loud! Grab your tent and let's pray.

The SoundQuilt Music Festival is a outdoor event with two full days of regional music. Produced by Walnut Grooves Productions, this will be the event's third year in the running. The event is hosted by The Cove Campground, a 3,000 acre park boasting plenty of camping, hiking, biking, swimming, canoeing, fishing, plus cabins for the less rustic-minded. The people are always inviting and ticket sales are limited to encourage the community atmosphere, so get yours today!

Did somebody say Widespread Panic? Get me my Epipen, I'm having a seizure! Cracker... can't talk... too much... rock...
Then, the commentator fell into a horrific, yet lovely, primal frenzy. The involuntary gyrating. The dislocated hipbone. It was all too much to withstand. It was his last concert, and he loved every minute of it.

Sponsored by the Fourth of July Hemp Coalition, this 35-year-strong event aims to promote drug law reform and protect civil liberties. In tandem with a rally at the White House and a Peace March, the concert promises to be another year of peaceful protest in the nation's captitol. Find out all the details for the events at smoke-in.org and come exercise your rights as a citizen of the United States of America.

All the favorite regulars at Fat Tuesday's are coming out for a laidback Sunday showcase. We're closing off the show with a late set.

Tripper Ryder is a music demigod. He has called upon the four winds and the rock spirits, impregnated a mortal with their combined majesty, and the offspring was called MoneyPenny. Hailing from a love aesthetic long forgotten, their sounds conjure up pop images from four decades ago. Meanwhile, epic poetry from the days of Grendel gets revamped and reinterpreted by RPM, resulting in astonishingly smooth beats and flow better than the Mississippi. Come hear them tear it up or face the wrath of nature herself.
