The October Northfield Entertainment Guide (NEG) hit the streets this morning, and on page 34 is the new ‘Didja’ Know?’ column by RepJ reporter Bonnie Obremski. NEG publisher Rob Schanilec introduces the column with this blurb (I’ve added the URLs):
Three months ago, reporter Bonnie Obremski drove her Subaru from Massachusetts to Northfield to begin work as a Representative Journalist for Northfield’s Locally Grown web site. The “RepJ” project matched Bonnie with a civic-minded blog hoping a new kind of grassroots community journalism takes hold. For more about the project go to RepJNorthfield.org.
Now that Bonnie is living on Division Street, has found stages for impromptu guitar gigs and cast her skills for their competitive advantage at the Friends of the Library’s Adult Spelling Bee last month, we thought she was ready for the big time. So we opened this space in the Northfield Entertainment Guide for RepJ’s “Didja’ Know?” Let us know whatja’ think!
I’ve heard Bonnie play at Chez Wigley; she’s got a beautiful voice, solid guitar skills and growing song-writing skills.
Where else is she gigging in Northfield?
ArtOnWater Fine Art Gallery was pleased to have Bonnie stumming at ChARTdonnay Thursday 2 weeks ago; and last Thursday she did an amazing, girl singer cover of a Bob Dillon breakup song that brought a lump to the throat of Peter (but not Big Wu-seasoned Terry ) in a shy, hands in pocket standup with Study Hall at the Cow.
Aw ‘preciate all the praise guys!
