It’s on a Saturday, and the regular crowd (and more) shuffle in to hear a variety of music:
— Although its officially been around since 1952, the Village Inn in North Hudson is celebrating 13 years under the current ownership with a party of three different types of music, food and drink on Saturday afternoon and evening, Sept. 22. The musicians playing are Jillian Gurnoe, Kyle Kohila and a full band in the form of Rock Hard. Two other stalwart Hudson venues, Kozy Korner in the village and The Agave Kitchen/Bullpen Cantina in the downtown, marked similar anniversaries earlier in the summer.
— Maverick’s Corner Saloon in River Falls continues with the offerings for back-to-school students with local deejay Robbie Flom on Sept. 23, but like all good things, you have to wait. He does not take the booth until 11 p.m.
— This might be a novel way for adventure seekers to enjoy what’s left of the summer. As far as rock climbing and taking in sights over and above what’s at the area nightclubs, the falls at Willow River State Park have been tabbed in the top 10 by a prominent publication. It notes that there even is an opportunity to be inverted, like a kid on the monkey bars. And you thought that the only prominent “Monkey” to be found was in a hip-hop band.
