Trident Booksellers & CafeDelicate Steve
Take a visit to Luke’s Garage, Delicate Steve’s latest album... Discover a place where sparks of creativity fly in all directions, where melodies splatter the walls like brightly hued paint, where no idea is too simple, too ingenuous, too full of childlike wonder. The L.A.-via-Jersey guitarist, Steve Marion, had no grand plan for making it; he would simply book some time at a friend’s studio, hunker down, and play. Hear Marion’s jubilantly tuneful instrumentals, as he composes them. Delicate Steve’s unmistakable sensibility is a benevolent guide through the ever-shifting landscape. He focuses on clarity, simplicity, and directness, more like an openhearted pop songwriter than a look-what-I-can-do shredder. The prevailing mood is one of discovery, as youre hearing Marion discover the music himself... Marion’s love for Dilla is evident in the way he treats each track as a little universe with its own parameters. In a sense, Luke’s Garage is not guitar music at all, but a fizzy, brightly colored pop record that just happens to feature the guitar as its lead voice. In its very looseness, embrace of happenstance, irrepressible groove, and joyful refusal to be anything other than itself, it’ll leave you feeling just a little freer than you did before you pressed play.

Murphy's Tap HouseBurnout To Backbone
A men’s nervous system night presented by Network Wellness Center invites men to rethink what having backbone really means. Rather than pushing harder, the focus is on the spine as the main pathway of the nervous system. When that system is overloaded, capacity shrinks, patience wears thin, presence is hard to access, and reactions can override intentions. The evening addresses physiology rather than personality and offers science, practical tools, and an immediate felt shift. Expect a concise talk on moving from running on empty to feeling regulated and present, a live NetworkSpinal demonstration so participants can see and feel how the spine and nervous system begin to change, and two simple resets designed for busy dads and high-performing men that can be used in everyday moments like in the car, before dinner, or at kids’ bedtime. There is time for open questions and peer connection without pressure to perform. Every attendee receives a complimentary assessment of nervous system bandwidth that highlights how the body is adapting to stress and the most promising levers for change. This night suits dads seeking more presence, high performers noticing the cost of always being on, anyone curious about NetworkSpinal or nervous system care, and men who value honest conversation about showing up. Attendance is limited to 20 men to support candid discussion. Dr. David, a Doctor of Chiropractic at Network Wellness Center, focuses on helping men who feel depleted rebuild energy, patience, and presence through nervous system care.
