After 29 years, Vermont music series turns out the lights one last time
After 29 years, 312 concerts and nearly 900 different performers on stage, the Ripton Community Coffee House will conclude its run with one last show. The Addison County concert series inside the 1864 Ripton Community House ends Saturday, May 18, with a performance by the folk duo Green Heron. Folk, Americana and traditional musicians, often noteworthy performers native to or based in Vermont, have played the venue’s tiny platform stage. That list includes Anais Mitchell, Michael Chorney, Paul Asbell, Caitlin Canty and Jamie Masefield.
Another Earthquake Rattles Citizens, This Time In Upstate New York
According to the United States Geological Survey, an earthquake rattled New Yorkers in Upstate yesterday morning. The 2.1 magnitude quake specifically shook Elizabethtown, New York in the Adirondacks. The United States Geological Survey received 33 responses admitting they felt the tremor. The Upstate earthquake comes just around a month after New Jersey’s 2.9 magnitude earthquake and nearly two months after NYC’s 4.8 magnitude earthquake. Apparently, earthquakes aren’t uncommon in the Adirondacks with fault lines running throughout the region. In the past 40 years, the Adirondacks have experienced two earthquakes with a magnitude of 5.0 or greater.
