It’s the Weekend!

May checks in on the calendar on Sunday, so maybe all those pesky April showers are finally over…

Thank you! We truly do appreciate everybody who dropped by this week to add encouragement, support and, yes, criticism, too. And thanks for helping to spread the word about Nippertown.com.

Nippertown.com is an independent, hands-on site, and we couldn’t possibly cover the wide, wonderful scope of offerings around town without a dedicated and devoted bunch of wonderful writers, photographers, artists, tipsters and other assorted enablers who continually enrich us all with their contributions. So a big salute goes out to this week’s community contributors:

Ed Conway
Bokonon
J Hunter
Daniel J. Hotter
Matt Mac Haffie
Larry Murray

Please consider adding your name to this list. Just send us something – a review, preview, interview, photo, list, rant, crayon drawing or whatever’s on your mind. Remember, Nippertown is your hometown, and we can’t possibly do this without your help.

Thanks to the fine folks who provided us with the cool swag – tickets, CDs, free downloads and other tasty merch – to give away to our readers:

EMPAC at RPI, Troy
The Albany All Stars Roller Derby
The Palace Theatre, Albany

Thanks to all of the folks who were gracious enough to provide us with review tickets and/or photo passes for their events:

Moon & River Cafe, Schenectady
Valentine’s Music Hall, Albany
Basilica Hudson, Hudson
Putnam Den, Saratoga Springs
The Van Dyck, Schenectady
Tech Valley Times, Saratoga Springs
Proctors, Schenectady

Thanks for keeping Nippertown alive… and lively.
