I feel like I’ve been giving you more recap than preview action of late, so I’m going to do a community service and hip you to a few events from now to the near future. Tom Joyner Morning Show producer turned best-selling author Nikki Woods will be at Sweetie Pie’s Upper Crust THIS Saturday afternoon (Aug. 9, 1 p.m. – 4 p.m.) signing copies and discussing her book Easier Said Than Done. Tuesday (Aug. 12) Wiz Khalifa and his Taylor Gang crew will be taking over the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre. One Cool Night returns to the Marquee on Friday Aug. 22 and Café Soul returns to its regular Saturday slot on Aug. 23 at the Rustic Goat. The 13 Black Katz are taking it to the Ambassador on Aug. 31 for Filet-Men-Non featuring Julius Williams, Tim Cunningham, Justin Hoskin, DeAndre Perryman and Jeff Hardin.
