Dozens attend popular downtown music festival PHOTO BY MELANIE RUBERTI
People seek shelter from the sun on Saturday in an alleyway off Madison Street as they listen to the sounds of James Tyler Wallace during the second annual Tucked Away Music Festival. Six separate stages were strategically placed in public parking lots and alleyways throughout the downtown area. Each stage had different performers and genres of music.
Ask Miss Pearl
MISS PEARL Dear Miss Pearl, Our last child is graduating from high school a nd I wa s hopi ng you could address the ridiculous circus atmosphere that has taken over the ceremony. Let me guess – when you r last ch i ld g raduated you were unable to
hear their name called because t he fa m i ly of the child before yours was still screaming and blowing air horns, right? This behavior is so rude and inconsiderate! And don't you love that everyone is asked to hold t hei r applause until the last diploma is ha nded out – li ke that h a s ever h appened or ever will. I mean, it's not li ke t hey a re goi ng to have you arrested if you don' t c om ply (m ay b e t hey shou ld g ive t h i s some t houg ht). T here are always going to be people who don't ca re if their behavior causes someone else's moment to be stolen. You need to accept the fact that it may happen again, so go get an air horn and join the party. Better yet, do the right thing and set a good example.
Dear Miss Pearl, My wife is turning 60 next month and I want to su r pr ise her w ith a trip to the Smoky Mount a i n s. T he p r oble m i s that she doesn't like surpr ises. W hat shou ld I do? Does your wife WANT to go to t he Smok y Mounta ins or do YOU want to go? Sorry, I had to ask! I think it is lovely t h at you wa nt to su rprise her, however, since she is not a fan of surprises maybe it would be best if you gave her three choices and let her choose where to go. You should be able to tell by the look on her face, the tone of her voice or the tilt of her head whether you have hit the bullseye or missed the mark.
