It may be Monday, but we're still thinking up good ways to get down in the area.
Take for instance a chance to hear a veritable ton of heavy music heading to the woods of Millers Falls. RPM Fest takes place during Labor Day weekend bringing metal, rock and punk bands from all over the Bay State and beyond to western Mass. to elevate the volume for three days of music, food, and more. We chat with founder and organizer Brian Westbrook about the strength of the local metal scene, the need for a festival in the area, and how you can learn more, and get tickets, at an event they're throwing at Prodigy in Easthampton this Sunday, July 21st.
And speaking of Easthampton, a new event space is opening up in Eastworks, started by one of the city's own. The Jupiter Club opens this Thursday July 18th, occupying one of the larger spaces of the mill building's first floor, and seeks to offer more to the greater community than meets the eye. Proprietor Sean Mitchell joins us to chat about opening a new spot, his memories of Easthampton of the past, and how this venture fits into the future that the city is envisioning.
Plus Mr. Universe, Hampshire College astronomer Salman Hameed, eschews the news cycle to break down the pursuit of that most elusive of black holes: neither small nor supermassive, but somehow perfectly inbetween the two.
