I’ve got to push this week’s column a little, what with it being a short week and all that, so let’s get right to it. Tonight — yes, that’s right, Thanksgiving night — the PopTart Monkeys will be at McGuigan’s Public House, 266 Market St., Sunbury, with the doors opening at 7 p.m.

If you get worn out shopping tomorrow and want to relax with some good music, come out to the King Street Coffeehouse at the Savoy, 221 Front St., Northumberland, for some good live music.

Younger folks may want to head for the Stonington Fire Co. on Route 61 on Saturday night for an all ages show featuring no less than five bands. The show, from 6-11 p.m., features Shoot Me Dead of Milton, Selinsgrove’s Circle 7, Ron Fleegor and the Stranger from Williamsport, the Quarry Road Project from Catawissa and A Farewell Rescue of Northumberland. Original rock, punk rock, classic rock and blues — what more could one ask?
