A somber "So long" to our three-day weekend means "Hello" to our post-three-day weekend blues...like we didn't have enough to worry about with all this leftover potato salad.
Nick-n-Willy's brought us another look at today's fresh entertainment in stores with our New Release Tuesday. On DVD, Nicolas Cage vows to Drive Angry and Javier Bardem is Biutiful. Musical drops include new stuff from Eddie Vedder, Jonathan Knight, Flogging Molly, My Morning Jacket, and DMB Live at Wrigley Field.
Planning a trip across the pond? Be sure to take Fodor's Europe along with you. Fodor's editor Cate Starmer joined us with an inside look at hidden deals and sites off the beaten path.
Two sure signs of summer as Oshkosh Irish Fest happens this Friday through Sunday, and Walleye Weekend kicks off June 9. We had details on both as we count down to the food, the music, the beverages, the inappropriate wearing of the Daisy Dukes.
