J'aime le Weekend.

Octoberfest is here (yes, with a "c"). It's our Weekend cover story this week, along with a band line-up and must-see events.

I also suggest checking out this story on the New York City French-singing band Nous Non Plus. I heard their CD, and it rocks -- even though four years of French have still left me in the dark as to what they're singing about. Some songs are in English. They're going to be at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh this weekend, and I may go. Why not. I need to get out more.
