Qdoba brings fresh flavors and community focus to Hoover

More than a year before the first customer walked through the door, the work had already begun. Planning sessions, construction timelines, hiring rounds and staff training all quietly unfolded behind the scenes before Qdoba Mexican Eats officially opened its newest Alabama location at 1539 Montgomery Highway in Hoover. For General Manager Hari Vajaha, that long runway made the opening feel less like a ribbon-cutting ceremony and more like a culmination.

Mac Sabbath Turns Up the Heat in Birmingham

From the outside, Workplay in downtown Birmingham doesn’t really look like the type of place to host a metal show. The space is a multi-use event center, containing ,among other things, office spaces and a coffee shop; however, go inside and you’ll find a concert hall that’s the right level of grimy for a band like Mac Sabbath. Mac Sabbath, for those unfamiliar, describe themselves as “drive-thru metal”, playing Black Sabbath covers with lyrics changed to be exclusively about fast food. It’s as ridiculous as it sounds, but it makes for an incredibly fun show. With support from Alyson Anomaly (a project by Flummox frontwoman Alyson Blake Dellinger) and Clownvis (who will be described in detail later), the show was nothing if not memorable.
