OK, school started & it’s after Labor Day so you think the Summer festival season is over, right? Wrong!

Posted on by Vickie & Peter

This Saturday (9/8) is Noise Magazine 31st Anniversary Fete starring Preacher Jack, Willie Alexander and T Max @ the Dog Bar.

If you missed these guys back in the spring, you DO NOT want to miss this!  If you were there, you’ll want to go again.  These guys ROCK!

And don’t forget Rob Newton’s Cape Ann Community Cinema music/movie festival Fall into the Rhythm starts next Tuesday with La Cenerentola.  Check this out from the Opera in Cinema website: A Live Fairy Tale, a stunning new film-opera event from producer Andrea Andermann, has been called “A kaleidoscopic fairytale suspended between Mozart and Disney with a hint of noir” by La Repubblica. Watch as Rossini’s jubilant take on the story of Cinderella unfolds in real castles and ballrooms in Europe, and through lush, never-before-seen animation.  Starring Lena Belkina as Cenerentola.

It’s still summer folks, as you can see by the fact that we have six live music choices tonight.  Check the full live music schedule here.

Pet of the Week-Josie

Posted on by Alicia Pensarosa

Hi!  My name is Josie and I am at the Cape Ann Animal Aid (CapeAnnAnimalAid.com) located at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter here in Gloucester. I can’t believe I am on Good Morning Gloucester! I must be famous and don’t even know it.

I am just one, still a kitten.  I have a beautiful coat.   I am a bit shy, but real calm and a loyal friend. I hope you might want to stop by and visit me at Four Paws Lane in Gloucester.   I have to run, if people know I was on Good Morning Gloucester, they might want my autograph and I have to practice my writing!

 

Sing-Along on the schooner Adventure

Posted on by Matthew Green

On Saturday, Sept, 1, during the Schooner Festival, there was a pot-luck supper and sing-along on the schooner Adventure, docked on Rocky Neck. It was a great time!  I was there last year too, and this is the sort of the thing that makes me so glad to be in Gloucester!
