"A lot of the good singers migrate here because the sound is so good."
Dear Folks,
This week in the Reno News & Review, Brad Bynum describes what he
considers a new golden age of karaoke in Reno, and -- in the print
edition only -- respondents to our person-on-the-street interviews talk
about /their/ karaoke experiences.
In Green, Kelsey Fitzgerald tells us about a brand new city
bicycle-powered compost service, while in News we have a report on the
fire at the chemical/low level nuclear waste dump near Beatty. Bob
Grimm gives us his take on the movie /Steve Jobs/, and Josie Luciano
reports on a long-awaited Reno Music Festival.
Thank you for reading us.
