Neal Evans played at the Westcott Theater with Soulive in 2009.
We caught Soulive for the first time almost a decade ago. Their brand of funk is maybe the closest thing we’ve heard to the Sound of Minneapolis (The Time, The Revolution, Flyte Tyme Productions).
Neal Evans (above) and his brother are from Buffalo, where July 9th is considered Soulive Day.
In addition to the music, Evans also scores films (most recently “The Boomer List” by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders).

Wednesday, October 15th, 2014Syracuse Fashion Weekend organizers did a great job blending live music/performance with their runway event. Here Gjilberta Lucaj puts on a mini-concert with a new spin on an old classic (at the MOST).
Open-air Conga Room
Tuesday, October 14th, 2014
NoExcuses’ Michael Heagerty put on his dancing shoes and led a Conga Line by the creek on Monday afternoon.
Unusually warm, fall weather and the Columbus Day holiday provided a great mix for creating the longest Conga line to ever groove past Onondaga Creek (near the Inner Harbor) yesterday. This was the first of a series of pop-up events by the group PlayedOut Syracuse!

Inner Harbor Dance Party for all ages.

Best Dressed
Here’s a follow-up to the Outliers post from last month.
We are convinced that there’s always an overflow of style surrounding a fashion show runway (from Syracuse Fashion Weekend).
