Friday night at the Narrows marks the return of Rani Arbo & Daisy Mayhem. Rani is a woman, Daisy Mayhem is the band.

Late Saturday afternoon we have the free reception marking the art show by Michele Soares and Carl de Moor, both of whom featured over the past couple weeks at this very site--so scroll down baby.
Your very humble blogger hopes to make this reception, since he will have returned from his treacherous and seedy visit to the very bowels of Tampa, FL (sorry about the bowels stuff), where he copiously recorded--sort of an Alan Lomax with a camera--the musical doings at the local folkie/Americana/cool place in Tampa--the only place to play we've heard--Skipper's Smokehouse.
By the way, visit the Narrows website for more info about Rani & the artists.
