2. Hard Working Americans

Many Americans are hard-working, of course, but we’re talking in particular about a new supergroup featuring Todd Snider and Widespread Panic bassist Dave Schools.

3. Urban Outfitters

Good or bad, everyone is talking about the upscale-hipster retail chain and its downtown Athens location’s grand opening party Thursday, Aug. 27.

4. Bob and Claire Clements

These beloved Athens artists opened up their hobbit hole for a WUGA fundraiser last weekend.

5. General Beauregard’s
