Saturday night, Athens legend and widely influential alternative rock band R.E.M. played the last American show of its world tour of the band's 14th album, Accelerate.
The opening acts consisted of indie rock bands Modest Mouse and The National. Because of the radical difference in the musical styles of all three bands, Atlanta's Lakewood Amphitheatre was packed with eager fans of all ages and descriptions.

Looking for something different to do this summer with your family or friends? Do you love music, camping and having a good time? If you answered "yes" to these questions then you should consider making a beeline for Marvin's Mountaintop, West Virginia this July 10th for the All Good Music Festival.

The Shiner Miners are a local band, whose members have recently relocated to other cities. Occasionally, however, we can be lucky enough to see them reunite at the Guadalupe Café in Sylva. What can be observed at this point is an authentic musical experience, something slightly reminiscent of Bright Eyes or a resurrected folk band implemented with drums and electrical capabilities.

A group of monoliths stands 19 feet tall in a clearing off Highway 77. This spectacle, called the Georgia Guidestones, can be found 35 miles east of Athens in the self-proclaimed Granite Capital of the World - Elberton, Ga.
Driving into Elberton, there is no indication that the mysterious Guidestones are located ahead.

As I am sure everyone has noticed, the Georgia Theatre has been doing some renovations on its building - $60,000 worth of renovations, to be exact. It has added a giant fan inside the theatre and more murals on the back of the building. Although I am sure the fan on the inside is great for keeping everyone nice and cool during sweaty shows and the back murals are awesome, my question is: What happened to the murals on the side of the building facing The Globe and Clayton Street? No one in Athens, a town that supposedly supports the arts, seems to notice or care.
