Yes, it’s finally here. The Grammys are on Sunday and personally I’m bursting at the seam to find out what lucky performers are to take home an award. I’m  a huge music fan, I don’t know what I would do without it in my life so it means a lot to see such inspiring and talented people get recognized for their work. If you’re as much a fanatic as I am, check out the nominees and make your guesses!

It’s a little ways away, but I’m spreading the word NOW so you can get tickets ASAP.

The Broadway sensation WICKED is coming to the Durham Performing Arts Center! I had the chance, scratch that, SHEER PLEASURE to see it in LA when I was visiting my brother and I have been itching to see it again from the moment I left the theatre. That was three years ago, so you can guarantee I will be at this performance! The show runs April 21 through May 16 and tickets are on sale now! Click HERE for show dates/times and get your tickets now!
