Ben Pine: The hardest working broadcaster in Louisville [Local profiles]

"I have to run to work and into the storm. Just like a firefighter, they run to the fire, we run to the storm."

Ben Pine, WHAS-11 meteorologist, just may be the hardest working broadcaster in the Louisville market. And this is by his own admission.

“I work a 10-hour day, which includes the web, phone, radio, Twitter, Facebook, special events or school talks that I do,” Pine said. “And that is on a ‘good’ weather day. I sometimes think the public thinks we have it easy, but we don’t.”
 
Pine’s day starts early – real early.

The Brown-Forman Nutcracker lives up to the hype [Family & Parenting]

Louisville has been a-buzz about the revamped Brown-Forman Nutcracker since its debut two years ago, and this first-time viewer encourages you to believe the hype. With only three performances left this year, it's the perfect time to treat your family to Tchaikovsky's Christmas masterpiece.

When we think of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker, the first thing that usually comes to mind is the glorious final act, performed by the Sugar Plum Fairy and her court of delicious sweets. This was the scene I was eager to see when I sat down for an evening performance of the Brown-Forman Nutcracker, now running at the Kentucky Center for the Arts, last Friday night. What I was not prepared for was the sumptuousness of the entire ballet, which is a veritable feast for the eyes and ears.

Review: RAIN does it best when it comes to The Beatles. [Music]

RAIN is as close as you can get to seeing The Beatles in concert.

When tickets are purchased for a production at The Kentucky Center for the Arts, it is assumed a play is in town. The production of RAIN is straight from Broadway and is a play, sort of…kind of…in a way. The company of RAIN brought The Beatles to life for fans in Louisville with three performances, actually concerts, over the weekend. The audience attended for many reasons; to relive their childhood, to jam to some good music, to pass the love of The Beatles to a new generation.

RAIN-I don’t mind [Music]

RAIN: A Tribute to The Beatles at the Kentucky Center this weekend
For the first time in Louisville, RAIN is direct from Broadway and it will ‘shine’.

The Beatles is arguable one of the top bands to ever grace music charts around the world, notably in America and Britain.  There are as many Beatle tribute bands as there are Beatle songs.  The frenzy over four lads from Liverpool exists at the forefront of current musical interest.  There is nothing depressing about this-it is time to celebrate the gifts four young men gave to the world.  George Harrison once said, “As far as I’m concerned, there won’t be a Beatles reunion as long as John Lennon remains dead”.  As yesterday, November 29 mark

Music and words go hand-in-hand.  Combined in the right mix, they create a symbiant relationship that can make our bodies move and our emotions race.  Music and words are our most basic forms of communication and expression; they both stand alone and weave together with a flexibility few other things on earth achieve.   In the life of musician and writer Rosanne Cash, the artistic synergy between sound and speech is her career.  Leading a duel life as both acclaimed singer/songwriter and essayist and author, Cash expresses the power of art, tradition and love in her
