OUR NEXT NEW HAMPSHIRE SHOWS


July 11 JOHNNY A
Johnny A. – His debut “Sometime Tuesday Morning” did something an instrumental guitar record never does- it became a major hit at radio. Aggressive touring and several critically acclaimed releases gained the admiration of the world’s top guitarists from Jeff Beck to BB King and led to a myriad of major appearances including Eric Clapton’s Crossroads, the Montreal Jazz Festival and Tokyo’s Fuji Rock Festival.

Although an instrumentalist, Johnny thinks like a singer as he plays, composes and improvises. “I’m always interested in dynamics and tone far more than the amount of notes played,” Johnny explains. That attention to detail lewd to a Gibson Johnny A. Signature Model guitar that has become one of the company’s most successful and popular models. (Listen)

New Liquor Store to Open Beside Red Arrow in Londonderry

A third Red Arrow Diner location, this one in Londonderry, will open by year’s end, company officials confirmed Monday.

Red Arrow President Carol Sheehan said the yet-to-be built restaurant, located on the grounds of the RMZ Truck Stop, 137 Rockingham Road, would be operating before 2015 begins.

The project was initially announced last summer, when Red Arrow officials revealed plans to open the eatery this spring. The planning process has proven to be a bit slower than they initially anticipated.

The state Liquor Commission also announced plans for a 9,000-square-foot liquor store at the new Londonderry Travel Plaza off Interstate 93. Construction of the New Hampshire Liquor and Wine Outlet is scheduled to begin later this month and open by the end of the year, according to the commission.
