Busy as a buzzzzn’ bee: Denton Live Jazz
And so much more …
By Kathy Edwards McFarland and Mr. Joseph Pinson
So, the venues are maxing out with, not only, regular weekly and monthly music performances, but University of North Texas is offering its Spring
Semester College of Music guest lectures, concerts, recitals, philharmonic symphonies, and the bands playing Thin Line Film Festival. If you cannot find something to do in Denton, you don’t want to. (I mean, peeps, even a blind man knows when the sun is shining!)
