Matt Vee’s Music of Neil Diamond Tuesday, October 4, 7:30 p.m. UD Heritage Center 2255 Bennett Street, Dubuque, IA

Matt along with cousins Jeff and Tommy Vee, sons of the legendary Bobby Vee, join forces with their family and friends as The Killer Vees to celebrate the music from Neil Diamond’s timeless catalog.

He made music that became the soundtrack to one generation after another with hits spanning five decades. “This is not a tribute show, says Tommy Vee, this is a celebration of an amazing musical icon we all love!” UD Choir and Julien Chamber Choir join as special guests.

The Wild Woman of Winedale Saturday, October 15, 7:30 p.m. Bell Tower Theater 2728 Asbury Road, Dubuque, IA

The Wild sisters are at a crossroads. Fanny is turning 60. Willa’s stress has driven her to vodka and speed-knitting. Johnnie Faye is determined to put herself back on the market and land a new man. (Preferably one with a house since hers is at the bottom of a Florida sinkhole). Together, they find a way to clear the clutter from their lives, homes, and relationships, and prove it’s never too late to take another one of life’s paths. Your Connections Club price is just $11.50 per person, due at reservation.
