A Whirlwind of Entertainment in the Lehigh Valley This Weekend

This week a tragedy hit close to home in the local music scene. Autumn Pasquale, a beautiful 12-year-old girl, was taken away from her parents in a very tragic way. She was the daughter of a member of the band The Electric Boa. The music community is tight knit and it's a brother/sisterhood.We have felt this family's pain and this has broken all of our hearts. I would like to take this time to offer my condolences to her family and to the members of The Electric Boa. I would like to dedicate this blog to Autumn. May you rest in peace beautiful one -- 10/29/99-10/22/12.

There is a lot going on this weekend, so take a break from life, put your dancing shoes on and get out and support local music. The bands would love to see your beautiful faces. Make sure to say thank you to them because a thank you goes a long way. Until next time...Music feeds the soul!!
