OK, we don't normally do this, but here's a heads-up from our good friend John Spencer, manager/medical marvel from the Bishop's Collar softball team. It just might be the thing for these early-December blues, particularly since the recently broken leg suffered by P&P wine guru Brad Wilson has cancelled this week's walk through the Rhone Valley at the club.
Spence plays guitar, washboard and first base in one of them rock n' roll groups, currently called Nervous Rex. In a previous incarnation, I believe the name was Midwife Crisis or Male Pattern Stupidity or something like that. He told me once, but I wasn't listening then, either.

Anyway, Spence (pictured at left during his touring days with Pink Floyd) and the band are playing this Friday, Dec. 12 at Yeats Pub in Ardmore. The "music" starts at about 10 p.m., and if you're in the mood for Stones covers and a pretty good time out on the Main Line, this just might be your spot.
In other softball news, general manager Chris Brennan announced that the roster will not be subject to industry-related layoffs for the coming season, although he will entertain some voluntary reductions of force and is considering buyout packages that could include a six-pack of Chesterfield Ale and season tickets to all P&P games.
