Buzzing Around Town - by Nora Spitznogle
posted: Jul. 26, 2019
It's the happiest time of the year! The great Indiana State Fair starts Friday, August 2 and runs through Sunday, August 18, 2019. I'm going to do my darnedest to keep my streak of attending every day of the State Fair alive.
Indiana State Fair
Aug. 2 - 18, 2019
I love every bit of the Indiana State Fair, especially that there is music around every corner. You can always find bluegrassy traditional folk music in the Pioneer Village Building. It's a great place to sit on a church pew and take a break. Pioneer Village is my favorite corner of the Fairgrounds. Tell them all I said hello!

The shows on the aptly named Free Stage are always big fun also. Most shows start at 7:30 pm, unless otherwise noted. The Free Stage is located on the northwest corner of the Fairgrounds, near the 4-H Exhibit Halls.

Not-for-profit director by day, music writer by night, Nora Spitznogle reviews music that happened and previews music and events around Broad Ripple Village. Nora managed CATH Inc coffeehouse at 54th Street and College Avenue for seven years. During that time she hosted hundreds of local and touring musicians, both at the coffeehouse and her home. When CATH closed in 2004 and the music was no longer coming to her, she had to wander from her corner of Broad Ripple to see what is happening elsewhere. You can find her at Second Helpings during the work day, waitressing at the Red Key on Saturday nights and prowling Broad Ripple music venues the rest of the time.
