Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday (what's with Italy paying Sir Elton John all that EU cash?).....

• QU Bobcats hosting the Vermont Catamounts this afternoon at the Bob Katz Center in Hamden.  Steve (The Bod) ready and able at the shot clock....
• And what's with Joan Baez falling out of a tree (story)?  Who does she think she is, Keith Richards?  Rumor is she was having a sleepover with Marcia V, whom she befriended at a New Haven concert a couple weeks ago.  Marcia, can you confirm?  (Singing "Virgil Cain is my name and I drove on the Danville train. 'Til so much cavalry came and tore up the tracks again." songfacts)
• If you are just layin' around the shanty tomorrow night, Jonathan Edwards at Mohegan Sun Wolf Den;  if you're layin' around gawking at your angel in a centerfold, Peter Wolf (of the J. Geils Band) is at Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton
• Thanksgiving is right around the corner.  I see from lead singer Jonny S's Facebook that those intolerant bastards, Zero Tolerance, are playing Thanksgiving eve at the Downtown Cafe in Bristol.  
• Note to self to pick up the Cajun fried turkey (with sides of cornbread and collard greens) at Black-eyed Sally's sometime on Wednesday.  Rumor surfacing that SHS football coaches stole the recipe and plan to use it against rival Cheshire HS.
