Notre Dame Moves College Football Game to Make Room for Legendary 80s Rock Band

With the college football season underway, Notre Dame found itself barely in the playoffs with a 7-1 record. Hoping to climb the ranks, the team prepared to take on the No. 1 team, Miami. A crucial game for the Fighting Irish, it seemed that the university was already looking ahead to the 2027 season. And the reason had little to do with football, as the legendary Bon Jovi announced they would be performing at the historic stadium. The only problem – the Fighting Irish had a football game that same day. The main word being “had.”

Ole Harv & Southside Denny Live November 14th! "Blues at the Crossroads"

Denny Snyder & Ole Harv Present “Blues at the Crossroads”. The fun begins on Saturday, November 14, at 7:00 p.m. when blues rocker and acoustic blues solo artist Denny Snyder, performing as Southside Denny, takes the stage at Wild Rose Moon Performing Arts Center for a live taping of the Wild Rose Moon Radio Hour (tickets $25 at wildrosemoon.com). Along with special guest Ole Harv of WVPE’s “Blues Review”, bassist Nathan Waddill, and pianist Brian Reedstrom, the energetic blues virtuoso will hold court as he and Ole Harv present songs that help tell the story of the blues as one of the central idioms grounding so much of American popular music. A native of South Bend who now lives in Montreal, Canada, Southside Denny cut his teeth at Buddy Guy’s in Chicago. He has opened for blues legends Luther Allison, Sugar Blue, and Pinetop Perkins and shared the stage with Ray Charles, John Fogerty, BTO, Edgar Winter, and Styx. Known for his rapid- fire melodicism, soulful playing, and open-tuning slide guitar, Denny will be joined by Ole Harv of WVPE’s long-running radio show of 43 years, “The Blues Review”. A member of the Chicago Blues Hall of Fame and the Indiana Broadcasting Stations’ Hall of Fame, Harv will not only sing the Blues, but he’ll also take the audience on a journey through the history of this important genre in a special segment that explores how blues influenced the course of popular music, from rock, gospel, folk, and jazz. The show’s producer, Nathan Waddill, will play bass guitar. Waddill has played with the Celtic rock band Roger Drawdy & the Firestarters, the traditional Irish band Kennedy Kitchen, the Irish Americana band Soltre, and the blues band Treated-n-Released. In 2023 he became the house bass player for the Wild Rose Moon Radio Hour alongside music director John Bahler. Brian Reedstrom, a well-known area sideman, will play keyboards. As a special treat, Mississippi Delta blues musician Tom Fry will help kick off the show with one of his original blues songs in the tradition of old Southern masters like Son House, Robert Johnson, and Mississippi John Hurt. The house band, John Bahler and the Moon Rockers, featuring fiddle player Sean Hoffman and cellist Ellen Coplin, will lead the audience through the show’s rousing theme song as well as play a traditional blues number with the band. The program will subsequently be heard on WVPE Public Radio and seen on WNIT Public Television. Audience members will be taped and will function as an integral part of thisfun and educational show.

American fare, live music, loyal customers keep Phoenix soaring

MISHAWAKA — On Sept. 5, 1872, a fire that began in a barn along the alley of West Second Street in Mishawaka took out 49 buildings in downtown Mishawaka and 82 businesses — totaling $140,000, or the equivalent of $3.4 million today, in damages. The fire marked a somber yet resilient time for the Mishawaka community, and from those ashes rose the Phoenix Building on Main Street and Lincolnway. Constructed in 1873 by John Niles, Henry Niles, Joseph Burt and Buford Holcomb, the three-story brick building served the city as an Opera House, First National Bank of Mishawaka and the Century Club — a social club and community space. Well over a century later, it holds the Phoenix Bar & Grill , an American fare bar with history placed on the walls and a thirst for live music. It also just happens to be one of the only establishments in the Michiana area where a customer can enjoy a cigarette and a sandwich at the same time. From vacant to vibrant Owned by Rich Kelly, the Phoenix building was transformed into the bar it is today in 2001, years after Kelly’s father, Don, bought it. The restaurant officially opened in
