Why: The last scheduled in-person performance by Victoria鈥檚 Ragged Glory had the unfortunate situation of falling on Nov. 19 鈥� the day the province cancelled all in-person events. Though that sold-out show was called off hours before showtime, the band has re-grouped and will stage a live stream from Hermann鈥檚 on Saturday night 鈥� a second kick at the canon of Neil Young, so to speak. Expect the players to have some fire in their bellies, with potential home-runs at every turn.
