• Our Rich Diversity of Music

  I attended a party tonight that was basically a jam party for many varied musicians. In fact there were two Accordion players there. Both of them have been quite busy lately with the various Octoberfest events that occur throughout GA.

  I am very excited to have found that Matchbox Twenty will be coming to Atlanta on January 28. I was going to refer to the show as a concert, but according to OpenSwitch, that would make me "old." However OpenSwitch did a great job highlighting the events at Roxy Theater.

  Atlanta is well known for the hip-hop seen here. According to Toya's World, there was quite a bit of celebrity spotting at Philip's Arena last night.

  Seeking a great show in your neighborhood? Sarah Zaslaw  offers a great list of upcoming music shows here in Atlanta.

• Taste of Atlanta's Bloggers

  
  Each year Atlanta Hosts the Taste of Atlanta a two day festival that ensure to delight everyone's sense by highlighting 70 of the top restaurants.  This is a very appropriate event for Atlanta, since we have more restaurants on a city block than the average person can visit in a month.
  
  Atlanta Foodies has posted a few photos of their experience of the event. Lizzie Marie Cuisine posted several videos of what she experienced and Chow Down in Atlanta offered a great report on her experience.   c
