- Snow and Blackbirds are as excited as I am to start wearing scarves again
What did you spend your time doing this summer while the Pavilion was closed? Maybe you went to the lake, had some memorable picnics and went on bike rides. It’s time to push all that out of your mind, replace the summer sun with a black light and get yourself back into that well-loved bunker on the Common for the Pavilion’s re-opening show on Friday September 11 with Lifestory Monologue, Snow and Blackbirds, Abolition and Dunce Club (free show and BBQ, BBQ at 6pm, show starts at 6:30pm). “We have basically upgraded the washrooms—-they are much better now—-and re-painted the inside but we are far from done,” says Pavilion owner Chris Smith. Smith hopes to upgrade the sound system and canteen area, and is planning a few fundraisers in the future to help with costs. But for now all you have to worry about is attending a free show and having a hot dog. I’ll bet you even missed that black light too, didn’t you?
