 What better way to kick off fall than with some apple picking, hot chocolate drinking, and of course, haunted housing! Get your Halloween fix early by attending the Davenport Jaycees Haunted House every Friday and Saturday for the rest of October. Grab a friend or family member's hand to squeeze and experience the most-terrifying hunted house in the Quad Cities! The star of the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is bringing his hilarious stand-up brand of comedy to the Adler Theater! Get your laugh on when Craig Ferguson's Hot and Grumpy Tour arrives on Saturday. Mix it up a little next weekend when the a capella group Straight No Chaser brings their ten, unadulterated human voices together to make extraordinary music with a touch of humor, too. Sing along to some familiar songs at River Music Experience this weekend during Deja vu Rendezvous featuring 10 of Soul. Tonight, the Kris Lager Band returns to the Redstone Room for a night of blues, soul, jam, and rock! And don't forget about this Third Sunday's Jazz presenting the Laurence Hobgood Quintet featuring Ernie Watts. If you'd rather be the star of the show, participate in the RME Open Mic Contest Round 1 tonight and perform in front of a live audience. Attention teens between the ages of 12 and 18! Get "animated" this weekend for Teen Anime Day at the Figge! Dress up in your favorite anime costume for a chance to win People's Choice while participating in art shows, a Japanese language and art session, and more. In light of the Halloween spirit, check out the new exhibition opening this weekend, Medieval Monsters. The very cool Day of the Dead Exhibit is still on display, as well. Spend part of your Saturday with Coffee, Cupcakes, & a Conversation during Bucktown Center for the Arts' Second Saturday Series. Meet with artist Nicole Zoe Miller and browse the works of Studio56. Don't forget to stop at the Freight House Farmers Market and bring the kids along to enjoy a petting zoo! While you're there, grab a pumpkin to carve along with some fresh and local autumn produce. If you're looking for more great tunes this weekend, head to Rhythm City to catch The Whoozdads or to Barrel House for The Candymakers.See you downtown!
