“Work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls-- family, health, friends, integrity-- are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered.”
- Gary Keller, Founder of Keller Williams
What's Up | our favorite local bands

Machine Gun and Jam Sandwich Band are the groups we love to go see play locally! - Nancy Baldridge, Listing Coordinator

A local favorite is Randy McQuay. Randy is an International Blues Challenge Winner and was voted Best Musician 2020 in Encore Magazine. He plays all over Wilmington and the beaches. Catch him at Waterline Brewing, Second Wind in Oak Island, and at Biggers Market. - Anne Rose, Director of Marketing
