Talking Heads' Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth screen Chronology in Fairfield on Nov. 21
![<span style="font-size: medium;">New York City, not the sanitized, post-Giuliani one-percenter playground but its grittier, darker 1970s precursor, is on the minds of a lot of people these days, from <em>Vanity Fair</em> writer James Wolcott, whose memoir <em>Lucking Out: My Life Getting Down and Semi-Dirty in Seventies New York</em> chronicles the era, to Queens native Will Hermes, who recently published <em>Love Goes to Buildings on Fire: Five Years in New York That Changed Music Forever</em>. (There’s also Patti Smith’s 2010 <em>Just Kids</em>, her tribute to the city whose music — along with her own — helped define the decade.)</span>](http://media.trb.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-11/378812200-14081934.jpg "<span style="font-size: medium;\">New York City, not the sanitized, post-Giuliani one-percenter playground but its grittier, darker 1970s precursor, is on the minds of a lot of people these days, from <em>Vanity Fair</em> writer James Wolcott, whose memoir <em>Lucking Out: My Life Getting Down and Semi-Dirty in Seventies New York</em> chronicles the era, to Queens native Will Hermes, who recently published <em>Love Goes to Buildings on Fire: Five Years in New York That Changed Music Forever</em>.

Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks at FTC's StageOne in Fairfield on Nov. 30
![Dan Hicks has been combining swing, folk, jazz and a dry sense of humor since the 1960s to create a genre and style all his own. On Wednesday night, Hicks and his Hot Licks will be performing their Christmas show, "Holidaze in Hicksville", to Fairfielders who are prepared to endure the post-Thanksgiving onslaught of Christmas-related events. On his new album <em>Crazy for Christmas</em> Hicks covers songs like "Run Run Rudolph" and "Under the Mistletoe" , but he's also concocted a few tunes of his own that will most likely be a bit off the beaten track, as far as holiday songs go. Sure beats yet another rendition of the Nutcracker. <strong> </strong>](http://media.trb.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-11/66235826-21091654.jpg "Dan Hicks has been combining swing, folk, jazz and a dry sense of humor since the 1960s to create a genre and style all his own.
