Re: “To Restart Construction, Burlington Amends CityPlace Agreement”
The overriding question here is why this project was allowed to proceed BEFORE Sinex had ALL THE MONEY NECESSARY to complete it!?!?...Perhaps Burlington's Mayor/Chief Developer can enlighten us?

Re: “Soundbites: A Tribute to Donovan and a New Home for the Nightshade Kitchen”
I laughed out loud when I read Jordan Adams' 'wildly underrated' description of Donovan. Pursuing my own passion for music, I've learned there's no underestimating the attraction of and loyalty to, niche artists (I still love Matthew Sweet after all these years!?!?). Still, there's something confounding about the thought of tribute to a man once nothing more than a Bob Dylan wannabe who then turned to psychedelic ephemera of his era. There was, unfortunately, no mention of Leitch's song "There Is A Mountain" as source material for The Allman Brothers' mammoth instrumental improvisation, "Mountain Jam:" do the tributeers perform that? But I'm not really complainingbecause the existence of a functioning homage to Donovan has me holding out hope to a similar unit devoted to Buffalo Springfield---or maybe even MOBY GRAPE/!
