Ten O’Clock Classics, Pratt:  Pratt Community Concert Assn has rescheduled the Ten O’Clock Classics to April 8, 7 p.m. in the Pratt United Methodist Church. This quartet mixes styles, instrumentation and genres-even tossing in some jazz rhythm to create what Wynton Marsalis describes as the joy of classical music arrangements for the uninitiated. Featuring arrangements that have been enjoyed in bars, health clubs, jazz clubs and even NBA half time entertainment to Carnegie Hall, Parisian and Melbourne International Arts Festival venues, there’s definitely something for everyone. Tickets at the door are $15.

Mom’s Bar & Grill, Seward:    Friday, April 9 and Saturday, April 10, Mom’s will be open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. only due to private parties being booked.  Yes - you can rent out Mom’s for special events, birthday parties and weddings.  And speaking of weddings, Mom’s will be closed all day on Saturday, April 24 for a wedding party.

Oooooh - is that a ghostie eating toastie?, Kansas City
:     Saturday, April 10 at 8 p.m. at the Memorial Hall, Kansas City, Kan.  Yep, this is a little far away but wow -  what a unique experience this might be.

Nick Spantgos and the PRI team will lead the investigation and attendees are encouraged to bring equipment, snacks and wear comfy clothing. There is a minimum age limit of 16 yrs and older and cost is $50 per person.

Is it Patsy Cline who performed her final concert there before her death in a plane crash in 1963 or maybe it’s the stage hand who was electrocuted and died, falling onto the stage,  during a rock concert?
