    Spree regulars may recall reading about Jupiter Radio Theater—an experiment in storytelling that mixes music, literature, and a dash of cinema—that comes from composer and curator Alex J. Weinstein, Western New York native and Lockport resident. Now, after four years of preparation and musical discovery comes a debut album.

Not only is he one heck of a guitarist, but he also has great songs and a band to match. (July 12, Artpark)Now in its fifteenth year, this event is uniquely Artpark and really activates our grounds. It’s fun to see visitors of all ages donning fairy apparel and reveling in the fairy house creations and activities.

It’s time once again for my top 10 of the year list for @TheFilmStage, and I found much to enjoy in 2024 … BTW, I’m quite pleased this list gave me a chance to mention the use of Blur and The Verve in Andrea Arnold’s BIRD (as well as its priceless “dad music” joke). On to 2025!
