Rockville Rundown: Sept. 30

Happy Friday, Rockville!

Today, the last day of September, marks the first day for a new-look “Rundown.”

The aim is to include more quick-hits and tidbits—and less ranting and raving from yours truly. (There will still be some ranting, as warrants—to offer perspective on big news, for important messages from the editor, to blow off steam about losing streaks by Washington sports teams—but overall, I’m trying to cut it down.) Oh and fewer rhyming headlines. (I’m out of “flow.”)

There will also be a more formatted look, with more photos of landmarks from around town, though we’ll throw in a timely or “newsy” photo as needed. We’ll also let the links speak for themselves, so where you see blue, be sure to click away.

And now, the weekend’s picks from the new-look “Rundown”:

• The concludes from 6 to 9 tonight with the Cajun-Zydeco sounds of The Crawdaddies.
• The Finest! presents tonight and tomorrow at Fitzgerald Theatre.
