Rochester's Weekly Heartbeat
I would like to extend an invitation to all of you who like to see what is happening…
Can you tell me what your favorite place you frequent in Rochester? Could be a restaurant, a bar, a shop, a fast food place… ANYTHING! I will make sure that those places (that have events) get posted. Here I will start…. One of my new favorite places to visit is the Wicked Moose, the bands that they have coming on a weekly basis seem to entertain everyone and I have not had a bad time yet! I should inform you though that my favorite places in town seem to change and quite often. I never stay in one place for very long and I like to adventure to new ones!
