Third Sunday Jazz featuring Maggie Brown

The Redstone Room

Sunday, November 21

 

"There is a lot of great music out here," says performer Maggie Brown in a recent Chicago Defender interview. "It is not popularized. It's not going to come to you on the radio, or on a CD. You have to look for it."

Well, folks, you can stop looking; great music can be found at Davenport's Redstone Room on November 21. Appearing as the latest guest in Polyrhythms' monthly Third Sunday Jazz Series, the Chicago-based Maggie Brown will present a 3 p.m. jazz workshop and a 6 p.m. concert of bound-to-be-thrilling solos, underscoring why the Defender describes her as "a phenomenal artist who has loads of individual style."

Kirby's Epic Yarn

'Kirby's Epic Yarn'

I sold myself on Kirby's Epic Yarn (released in October for Wii) almost immediately based just on the presentation. With almost every game I play trying to create realistic settings or characters, the pink puff ball's adventure in yarn form gave me a childlike sense of awe at first sight. What followed is a game with minimal challenge, but it's enjoyable nonetheless. It is undoubtedly a kiddie game, but you might find it surprising how delightful it can really be.
