John Gallimore started volunteering at FC United of Manchester in 2006 and continues to love it. The 74-year-old became a fan in 2005 when the club was founded and has since helped with the club flags inside the stadium and at reception. He said: “It's our club, we don’t consider it work, it’s stuff that needs to be done to keep our club going and obviously save costs.

The New Jersey Symphony ushered in the classical Christmas season this weekend in Newark with a cheerful concert performance of Disney’s “The Muppet Christmas Carol.”The music in this 1992 adaptation of Dickens canonical Christmas chestnut is not as well-known as the films and soundtracks that the symphony usually accompanies in its cinema series, but Paul Williams’ songs and Miles Goodman’s score are simple and effective at making Jim Henson’s Muppet take on Victorian London come alive.

The New Jersey Symphony just proved Duke Ellington’s old adage true once again: It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing. The group’s concert last Thursday at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark presented classics, new music and new riffs on classics. The program didn’t appear particularly enticing on paper. But in person, the music wasn’t just rousing — it had that swing. Much of that swing came from Cuban-born artist Paquito D’Rivera.
