SUMMARY:First Friday with Little Raleigh Radio Featuring the Veldt
DESCRIPTION:Little Raleigh Radio is bringing a new listening party series: Groove History to the City of Raleigh Museum.\nJoin us for a live performance by the Veldt\, interviews with the band\, and listen to their 1998 record\, Illuminated. Stop by the museum from 6 – 9 p.m. to get in on the action. The Veldt will play around 7:45 p.m. \nAbout Little Raleigh Radio\nLittle Raleigh Radio is a fully independent community-powered internet radio station that amplifies creative audio entertainment and educational opportunities for the people of Raleigh\, North Carolina. Groove History is a collaboration with the City of Raleigh Museum\, exploring records that showcase Raleigh’s creative capital\, rich roots\, and artistic direction. \nThe Veldt\nAbout the Veldt\nRaleigh’s the Veldt are pioneers of shogaze rock. Founded by twins Daniel Chavis (vocals\, guitar) and Danny Chavis (guitar)\, The Veldt released four incredible albums in the 90s starting with the standouts Marigolds and Afrodisiac. However\, their first record\, Illuminated 1989\, was mysteriously shelved amidst an internal A & R staffing shakeup at Capitol Records. \nIn November 2023\, North Carolina’s 5BC records and Portland’s Little Cloud Records helped get the rights back to Illuminated 1989. Despite being 30 years old\, the album still feels ahead of its time with vocals that are clear and full of emotion\, complementing the glimmering wall of music rather than allowing it to be absorbed. \nThe record is proving as foundational now as it would have in the late 80s\, and Little Raleigh Radio’s Groove History is pleased to showcase it at the City of Raleigh Museum’s First Friday event.

SUMMARY:Most Delicious Poison
DESCRIPTION:Join the Garden Forum Collaborative for a book talk! The JC Raulston Arboretum has joined with the North Carolina Botanical Garden Foundation\, Sarah P Duke Gardens\, Durham Garden Forum\, and Durham County Master Gardeners to bring you a night with Dr. Noah Whiteman\, author of “Most Delicious Poison.” \nBased on cutting-edge science in the fields of evolution\, chemistry\, and neuroscience\, “Most Delicious Poison” reveals the origins of toxins produced by plants\, mushrooms\, microbes and even some animals\, the mechanisms that animals evolved to overcome them\, and how a co-evolutionary arms race made its way into the human experience. This perpetual chemical war not only drove the diversification of life on Earth\, but is also intimately tied to our own successes and failures. You will never look at a houseplant\, mushroom\, fruit\, vegetable or even the last 500 years of human history\, the same way again.

SUMMARY:Fairgrounds Ideal Home Show
DESCRIPTION:The long-running Fairgrounds Ideal Home Show is celebrating North Carolina’s storied barbecue culture when it returns to the NC State Fairgrounds September 18-20 by bringing in legacy barbecue names and pitmasters to teach (and feed) audiences their craft. \nThe three-day show brings together hundreds of local experts in home improvement in one place and picks up where online research leaves off – by providing real world advice specific to each individual project. Guests can check out the latest home improvement products\, get advice from presenters on the Fresh Ideas Stage\, participate in interactive workshops and at this show – taste world-class barbecue from industry legends. \nJust in time for tailgate season\, the Fairgrounds Ideal Home Show is rounding up some of the biggest names in North Carolina barbecue to share trade secrets and samples. \nPitmaster Ryan Mitchelll appears at the show on Saturday\, September 19 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. Ryan was born and raised in a barbecue family as the son of Ed Mitchell\, well-known for Eastern North Carolina whole hog barbecue. Long before the Pitmaster fame Ryan could be found by the side of his grandparents\, Willie and Doretha Mitchell\, day in and day out helping out in their small corner store off 301 HWY in Wilson. \nAfter high school\, Ryan attended East Carolina University to pursue his dreams of playing college football and earning a degree in economics. He spent eight years working in commercial and investment banking for some of the nation’s largest firms before he re-evaluated his professional life and decided it time to leave his 60 hour a week desk job and return to his roots and passion. \nIn addition to Ryan\, another third generation NC pitmaster – Sam Jones will be onstage on Friday\, September 18 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. The Sam Jones legacy began with Sam’s grandad\, Peter Jones\, who opened the Skylight Inn in 1947 at age 17. Sam Jones is known for Eastern Carolina barbecue and chopped whole hog barbecue.
