Today is the last Friday the 13th of the decade, Jackson! We are settling in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season as procrastinating shoppers liven the city, myself included. Once all the shopping is done (or maybe even before), check out JFP's events calendar and music listings pages to put together a weekend the whole family can enjoy. The winter events guide from our latest issue has many options laid out for you for your convenience. I wish I could go to everything, but I've made up my mind, and I'm looking forward to checking out my top picks!
