What an exciting weekend ahead. For the fourth year in a row, Rome is hosting the NAIA National Championship football game, which means that downtown Rome will be full of football fans on a mission to have a great time. Here are a few highlights of other events to check out this weekend:
The Acts of Random Theater group will somehow manage to fit in every Christmas story every told in their fun dinner theater production called Every Christmas Story Ever Told.
There will be some great live music this weekend including local favorites likeBackswing, Jon Byrd, and Scott Thompson; rock ‘n’ roll party bands like Daddy Irvand MissUsed; an evening of jazz featuring vocalist Rai Ragland; the new wave grooves of My Ninja; and the Southern heavy metal thunder of Black Friday.
I can’t forget to mention an exciting event coming on Sunday. The DeSoto Theatre will host a live radio broadcast of A Christmas Carol. It’s in the style of old-time radio broadcasts equipped with sound effects, live commercials and a talented group excited about the show. You can attend the show at the DeSoto or listen to the live broadcast on WLAQ 1410 AM and The Ridge 95.7 FM.
-Hear Bryan and Matt D weekdays from 7-9 a.m. on The Ridge 95.7 FM.
