The songs that echoed through the Old Armory Pavilion on a chilly fall night did not resemble those of a church service. The singer and electric guitar player embellished and riffed as if a gospel congregation were in a church, although John Lennon’s “Imagine” is a song rarely sung under an altar call. Then again, […]
Under glowing lights strung between cedars, patrons meandered toward the scents of wine and the sounds of steel drums, stopping to talk with friends old and new every few paces.
