For the entire month of November, STUFF TO DO went on hiatus so that your humble blogger could bring you The 2024 PopCult Gift Guide.  With that excuse no longer valid, it seems I have run out of reasons to not write this post.  Besides, there’s still  tons of STUFF TO DO in Charleston and the rest of the Mountain State over the next few days so you can just read below and find out all about it. To make up for my slacking off, you can even expect a holiday-themed bonus edition tomorrow.

Even with our newly-arctic weather, there are still outdoor events happening, so I will continue to implore you to not be a dick and vape or smoke around other humans who may not share your addictions. Lots of folks get really sick when exposed to that garbage and it would’ve been really nice to to to Light The Night without having to smell nasty tobacco and weed odors.

As I have been copying and pasting for some time now, this a good time to remind you that THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE LIST OF EVENTS.  It’s just a starting point, so don’t expect anything comprehensive, and if you feel strongly about me leaving anything out, feel free to mention it in the comments. And if you have a show that you’d like to plug in the future, contact me via Social Media at Facebook or Twitter.

Live Music is on tap at Taylor Books. There is no cover charge, and shows start at 7:30 PM.  This week’s shows are not yet announced.  Last week they didn’t put up FB event pages until the day of, so think of it as “blind box” musical entertainment.

As  always, The World Famous Empty Glass Cafe has some great stuff this week  to tell you about. Thursday at 5:30 PM, Swingstein & Robin return with Hot Cub stylings for a good cause.  Friday Tim Courts holds down the forts for Happy Hour.  Check the graphics dump below for more upcoming events at The Empty Glass.

Please remember that viral illlnesses are still a going concern with the ‘rona still lurking about all robust and reinvigorated and now with Fahrvergnügen™. Plus there are nasty seasonal ailents, Pumpkin Spice Farts, excited deplorables, flying reindeer droppings and other damned good reasons to be careful. Many people who have very good reasons are still wearing masks, and many of us, understandably, are still nervous about being in crowds, masked or not. Be kind and understanding  while you’re out.

Keep in mind that all shows are subject to change or be cancelled at the last minute.

Here we go, roughly in order…
