News and notes from Fredericksburg's entertainment scene
A Birchmere-like music venue in Fredericksburg?
A new concert series is coming to the A. Smith Bowman Distillery. The Music & Spirits series will feature American roots music—blues, jazz and rock—in a listening room environment with food and beverages available during the show. The opening concert is Saturday, April 5 and will feature award-winning bluegrass songwriter Joe Newberry and the rocking Americana country duet Pretty Gritty.
Music & Sprints is the brainchild of husband-and-wife team Bryan Blakemore and Laura Cooper—a local couple who were tired of traveling an hour to hear good roots music.
"What we're trying for is a listening room, sit-down experience that is more like The Birchmere," said Cooper. "We want to have more events here so we don't have to drive so far—you have to drive to Charlottesville or Richmond or Alexandria—there isn't anything like that here."
Blakemore has some impressive musical connections. He grew up with brothers Otiel and Kofi Burbridge, both successful professional musicians. Otiel is the bass player for the Allman Brothers Band and Kofi plays keyboards and flute with the Tedeschi Trucks Band. Blakemore said a conversation with his friends gave him the idea for the concert series.
"I was sitting backstage with them and they said 'Hey, we're kind of tired of the big stadium type of thing. I wish a musician or somebody in our group would put together an intimate setting so we could get closer to the fans. Because these big stadiums are so cut off from the fans that people don't get a chance to see us with security and all this other stuff,'" Blakemore said.
Blakemore liked the sentiment, and thought Fredericksburg's rich historic ties would provide the perfect environment for American roots music.
Blakemore teamed up with Joe Showers, a former track coach at George Mason University who had experience organizing large events. Their original idea was to hold a citywide music festival, similar to the South by Southwest event in Austin. Smaller groups would play at restaurants and bars in town, headliners would play larger venues. But after considering the logistics, they scaled back the idea to a more manageable concert series. They contacted the A. Smith Bowman Distillery, and the company was interested in the idea. The distillery happened to have a space suitable for a large audience.
"It's kind of a tourism promotion thing," said Cooper. "In addition to music, they're very connected to tourism in Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania, so they're getting some great opportunities to connect to those different industries to try and bring folks here."
Another mission of Music and Spirits is to promote music education. Many of their featured performers will provide master classes prior to their performances.
"Joe Newberry will be doing a songwriting master class," said Blakemore. "He's doing that from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Joe will help students focus on making their good songs even better, or get them started if they only have a trunk full of ideas."
"We're going to give two kids scholarships to go to the songwriting workshop," said Cooper. "It's the same day as the show. That's our objective. When we can, we want to get some of these musicians that are coming from afar to offer up some sort of class that we can make available to the community. We want to always keep two slots open for scholarships for young people."
Blakemore and Cooper hope that their new concert series will take off and provide a venue with good music, food and drinks.
"Come on out and enjoy it," said Blakemore. "It's going to be fun."
What: Music & Spirits Concert Series presents Joe Newberry with Pretty Gritty
When: Saturday, April 5, 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 5 p.m.
Where: A. Smith Bowman Distillery, 1 Bowman Drive, Fredericksburg
Cost: $15 online, $18 at the door

Just 55' to the beach and walk another 116' to the shore - it's that close!
We are able to offer our home on a year-round basis with both heat and central air conditioning. An OFF-SHORE MOORING is available and can accommodate a 30' boat. The home includes a 5 person paddle boat for your use to enjoy the bay or provide transportation to the mooring! Don't have a boat? There are nearby rentals to deliver boats, kayaks, or water toys right to the shore or house.
Enjoy your 'Up North' getaway with all the comforts of home. Wall to wall carpet in the main rooms and bedrooms plus each bedroom boasts newer beds and linens.

There are no dunes to climb making for easy access to the water front. Check out the water mat, it's similar to a trampoline but on the water like a magic carpet. Bring your watershoes for more comfort along the waters edge and for walking the shore.
Northport is a quaint waterfront town with boat launch, marina, shopping, hiking and more. The village is conveniently located at the tip of the peninsula making it convenient to visit neighboring Leland, Sutton's Bay, Glen Lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and just a 30 minute trip to Traverse City for the annual Film Festival or Cherry Festival. There are many benefits to spending your vacation on the bay vs. on Lake Michigan. If you enjoy the water, you'll love the calm and relative warmth of the bay. We welcome you to our home and hope that you enjoy your vacation in Leelanau County.
A great Girl Scout campfire tip - recycle your old egg cartons, prefer cardboard, and lint from the dryer plus your half used candles. Using an old kettle as double boiler with another sturdy pan or other open mouth kettle, fill the pot half way with water and place the kettle in the water. Fill the kettle with your old candles and melt them down. Place the lint in the openings of the egg cartons. Then pour the hot melted wax over the lint. Lint, wax, and cardboard are outstanding firestarters for your campfire! I keep my recycled egg cartons next to my dryer and fill them weekly. I usually wait until I have half dozen or so before I melt wax and make the starters.
Enjoy your campfire!

Why The Owner chose Northport
We discovered Northport in the early 80's and found it to be one of the most picturesque and relaxing places around. After years of visiting we made the decision to purchase our own home. Though it's a long drive for us, we find it to be worth every minute. The quaint village of Northport and neighboring towns are perfect for our family and friends. This is a great esacape from the hectic city life of Chicago.
What makes this house unique
Our location is perfect. We have just the right balance of proximity to town while also enjoying the seclusion of being nestled in the trees. After spending time in other areas, we appreciate being able to use the water and not worry about currents or waves. Calm, peaceful, safe, friendly, and just simply beautiful!
Guestbook comments from the owner
Thanks for sharing your amazing house with our families. We will always remember this house as the awesome place with the cool mat in the lake. Most of our time in the days we'd play on that for hours! Thanks again.

Firefighters worked for hours to extinguish a massive fire at a two-story commercial property Friday night in Miami.
Costumers were washing and drying their clothes at J&J Coin Laundry, 2322 Northwest Seventh Street, when they reported smoke.
Witnesses told firefighters the flames moved quickly through the building.
About 40 firefighters responded and struggled with an unstable roof, Miami Fire-Rescue Lt. Ignatius Carroll said.
No one was injured, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation, Carroll said.

Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil al-Arabi was elected as the new Arab League chief on Sunday. The announcement of his candidacy came after Egypt withdrew diplomat Mustafa al-Fikki from the race just moments before voting for the head of the 22-member body was due to begin.
"The Arab world is going through many crises. We must all stand together and find solutions," Arabi said,according to AFP. Fikki had faced strong opposition both on the Egyptian street and from within the league because he served the ousted regime of President Hosni Mubarak, sources said.
Arab foreign ministers had gathered in Cairo earlier on Sunday to start discussions on who would succeed Amr Mussa as the new secretary general of the pan-Arab body.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - An elderly man says he was conned out of $10,000 by scammers offering a multi-million dollar payday.
The 84-year old victim told investigators he was contacted in 2012 by a man claiming to be from Bank of America. The suspect then told him they were holding 2 checks worth an estimated $4.5 million.
The man then told the victim in order to receive the cash he needed to deposit money in the forms of Green Dot cards and MoneyGram orders.
Over a 12-month period the victim sent nearly $10,000 in transactions before contacting authorities.
The victim said he would then contact the man, who would then transfer the funds to another account.
