The music won’t stop for Dave Manuel. Days after The music won’t stop for Dave Manuel. Days after Audrain’s La Forge Restaurant informed the beloved pianist his time behind the keys had come to an end, the decision has been reversed. Manuel will continue to serenade diners every Friday and Saturday night, much to the delight of his loyal fans. The reversal comes after an outpouring of community support for the local legend. Manuel took to Facebook to thank those who rallied behind him, writing, “Thank you, thank you, thank you, everyone, for the absolutely overwhelming show of love and support that I have received. Everyone should be as lucky as me to hear such beautiful things said about them while they’re living. I highly recommend it. Love to all.” Audrain’s decision seems to underscore the power of community voices in preserving local traditions. For now, fans can rest assured that Manuel’s music will continue to light up their weekends. Nick Schorsch’s Audrain group has been on a buying spree since relocating to Newport from New York City roughly a dozen years ago. His holdings include: La Forge Restaurant, Brick Alley Pub, Newport Craft Beer, The Red Parrot, Flo’s Clam Shacks, The Vanderbilt Hotel, Audrain Automobile Museum, Audrain Motorsport, Audrain Park Place, Audrain Hospitality, La Costa Lobster and Tacos, Wally Weiners, Newport Lobster Company, Hilltop Inn, the Cluck House, the Cluck Truck, Amano Pizza, Newport Life Magazine, The Reef, Caleb & Broad, and the food concessions at Easton’s Beach. #newportri #laforgerestaurant #rhodeisland #newportbuzz
Get ready, beer lovers! @pivotalbrewingcompany is Get ready, beer lovers! @pivotalbrewingcompany is brewing up something special on Broadway. The Bristol-based craft beer haven announced Friday that it will open its second location this spring in the former home of the iconic Salvation Cafe. “We’re thrilled to announce that Pivotal’s second location is coming to Broadway in Newport, RI this spring!” the brewery shared in a statement. “We couldn’t be more excited to bring our newest gathering spot to the heart of the Broadway District.” Known for its innovative approach to craft beer, Pivotal promises to blend tradition with creativity. From hazy ales to experimental brews, their lineup boasts the most diverse selection in Rhode Island. And now, Newport locals and visitors alike will have a front-row seat to Pivotal’s philosophy: beer as art and every sip as an experience. The Broadway District, already a hub of vibrant energy, is set to welcome this new addition with open arms.  With plans still under wraps, the brewery teased “so much more to come,” encouraging fans to stay tuned. For now, loyal patrons can visit their Bristol location, open for regular hours. Whether you’re a seasoned craft beer enthusiast or just dipping your toes into the foam, Pivotal’s arrival in Newport promises something for everyone. Mark your calendars, because this spring, it’s time to raise a glass to the art of beer—Broadway style. #pivotalbrewing #newportri #newportbuzz #rhodeisland #bristolri #craftbeer

In a rare display of unity, Senators Sheldon White In a rare display of unity, Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Rick Scott (R-FL) have reintroduced the Sunshine Protection Act, aiming to make Daylight Saving Time (DST) permanent and end the twice-yearly clock changes. For Whitehouse, the issue is personal to his constituents. “Many Rhode Islanders look forward to that March weekend when we ‘spring forward’ and ditch the afternoon darkness of the cold winter months,” he said. “I’m glad to help lead the bipartisan push to end the antiquated practice of adjusting our clocks twice a year and finally make Daylight Saving Time permanent nationwide.” Scott, who signed a similar law as Florida’s governor, says Americans are fed up with changing their clocks. “I hear from Americans constantly that they are sick and tired of changing their clocks twice a year,” Scott said. “I’m excited to have President Trump back in the White House and fully on board to LOCK THE CLOCK so we can get this good bill passed and make this common-sense change that will simplify and benefit the lives of American families.” The bill already has support from 13 other senators. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) sees it as a boost to public health and the economy, while Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) highlights states’ rights. Longtime DST advocate Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) adds: “Let’s say goodbye to 4 PM winter sunsets!” Proponents cite big benefits: ☀️ More evening sunlight for outdoor activities 🚗 Fewer car accidents 🛍️ Boosted consumer spending 💪 Better health and well-being The Sunshine Protection Act passed the Senate unanimously last Congress but stalled in the House. With new momentum, supporters are optimistic this time will be different. For now, Americans will “spring forward” in March. But if lawmakers succeed, this could be the last time we change our clocks. What do you think? Should we “lock the clock” and make DST permanent? Let us know! #LockTheClock #SunshineProtectionAct #DaylightSavingTime #newportbuzz
