PR: 8.2.0 Pizzeria in the Music Factory is rebranding as The Hamilton and will now be an event venue. This is something they’ve been working on for awhile. I first remember hearing the plans in 2018. Congrats to all involved. – at Charlotte, NC

I appreciate the gusto of the new owner. I ate at the Penguin and remember liking it but I was 19. For all I know the food did suck. Similar to Dish, I like new owners who maximize strengths and minimize weaknesses. – at Charlotte, NC

Yeah, they’re my bros, but let’s be honest: @EvanKent13 and @ScottyCrownClub are in the S tier of Charlotte event planners and they don’t get enough credit for it. Who else is packing out events dozens of times a year consistently? – at Charlotte, NC

How can you possibly say there’s nothing to do in Charlotte when we’ve got a lucha libre pro wrestling festival Charlotte FC tailgate tomorrow at 11am in Uptown? And it’s only $15! Tickets: pwxpro.com/ – at Charlotte, NC

I know I can come across as jaded sometimes, but y’all am BLOWN. AWAY. at the new Amelie’s. This is going to become a top community and tourist destination in this city. Bravo. CC: @AmeliesBakery @blackwedco – at Charlotte, NC

The business is Good Life at Enderly Park owned by Robbie McNair, who's also the creator of the new Babe Cave you've heard so much about.
Jim Noble is at it again. He’s put up “Noble Smoke Parking Only” signs in a parking lot he doesn’t own to force the patron’s a Black woman’s business to park in the back of the lot. cc: @WCCBCharlotte for the story, @WingzzaTruck for the tip

I’ve been obsessed with this musical since I was 14 years old and next week I finally get to see it live at the Belk Theater. Who else is going? The show’s in town March 22nd - 27th. cc: @BlumenthalArts – at Charlotte, NC

Got a spare $300K? Taproom Social in Uptown is for sale. This self serve bar is within walking distance of Bank of America Stadium and the Truist Park. Seems like a home run location and concept, but the owners want out after COVID. – at Charlotte, NC
