As hard to believe as it may be, next weekend is Labor Day Weekend, so you should try to squeeze every ounce of enjoyment out of this next-to-last August weekend.

There's plenty to do, including Rod Stewart's first Atlantic City concert in eight years this Saturday night at Trump Taj Mahal. Rod is promoting his latest album "Time", his first album of original music in well over a decade.

Stewart had a good string of luck recently with a series of albums of classic covers and songs from the American songbook . You will hear lots of the old and the new from "Rod the Mod"on Saturday.

Tickets are still available to see the remarkably youthful 69-year-old Stewart Saturday night at the Taj.
