Music Midtown 2018

from Go Atlanta Hosted by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Come mid-September, Atlanta’s most dedicated music fans will make their way to Piedmont Park—and for good reason. The city’s preeminent outdoor destination is home to our most prominent music festival—Music Midtown. For two days and with four stages, music fans will be energetic spectators of 30 popular musical acts, such as headliner Imagine Dragons, Grammy-winning rap artist Kendrick Lamar, hip-hop act Post Malone, rock band Fall Out Boy, and Atlanta’s own Janelle Monáe. AJC music reporter Melissa Ruggieri chats with the festival’s eminent producer, Live Nation President Peter Conlon, about Atlanta’s most diverse, eclectic, and prominent music event. Plus, host Shane Harrison shares things to do during the next 10 days, including the Fall Folklife Festival at the Atlanta History Center.

Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011. Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
