Woke up to the awful news that John Lodge of The Moody Blues passed away suddenly this week. The music of The Moody Blues has been part of my life soundtrack since my early teen years and took me through many life changes and challenges. Rest in peace, John.

AV & The Inner City's annual porch concert happened on October 5th - but this time instead of at AV's (McCauley resident Ann Vriend) porch, it was held in the back alley and yard at The Works' headquarters on 95th Street and 106th Avenue.
