On the cover
It’s fry season — wait, we mean, fair, it’s fair season, though maybe fry was also correct? In this week’s cover story, John Fladd looks at the delicious, often fried, frequently decadent eats that are a key part of attending late summer and fall fairs — such as the Hopkinton State Fair, which runs this Thursday, April 28, through Monday, Sept. 1 (see more details about that on page 8). Photo above and on the cover is from Danielle Calkins of the apple crisp from Pat’s Apple Crisp & Cider Donuts.
Also on the cover: Michael Witthaus talks with Parmalee in advance of the band’s show at the Sullivan Arena at Saint Anselm College on Friday (see page 22). John Fladd finds out about mushroom camp (page 16). Hopefully your weekend stretches to Monday — we’ve got all kinds of music to fill your weekend: Concert listings (page 26), the Music This Week listings of bands at area breweries and restaurants (page 23) and even the concerts that blend storytelling, musical traditions and classical music touches at Avaloch Farm Music Institute (page 12) running Friday through Sunday this weekend.
