Movie night at the Amphitheater is off, but the Eikosi fest is on.

The Labor Day weekend movie night tomorrow is off ... but the Eikosi Wine & Beer Festival in Salem is still on, rain or shine. From the 'Bune:
NEW ALBANY — Due to the expected heavy rainfall this weekend, tonight’s [Saturday] double movie feature at the New Albany Riverfront Amphitheater has been canceled.

The movies “Jurassic Park” and “Despicable Me” were slated to be shown in concordance with Labor Day weekend, and the city is exploring opportunities to reschedule the event. For more information, visit the website newsandtribune.com

Storms, plywood and Port-A-Cans.

Leading off, the Tribune's Daniel Suddeath looks at Harvest Homecoming's Thursday evening shutdown: Rain Delay: Weather dampens first day of festival, organizers hoping for big weekend.

The festival chairman says that today and tomorrow will be booth day business as usual. If you come downtown and see merchants installing plywood sheeting over windows, it isn't because of the weather. Rather, today is the annual downtown beer walk. If you desire a libation of higher overall quality than the mass-produced, carbonated alco-pop from international brewing cartels, I'm guessing you know where to go.

Elsewhere in the newspaper, Matt Nash asks: Is real life stranger than fiction?

Stay tuned for the NABC Fringe Fest schedule for today.
