NORTH ADAMS - Frank Critelli and Marc Douglas Berardo will perform at the next Railway Cafe concert on Friday, Dec. 14, at 7:30 p.m. at MCLA Gallery 51.
Frank Critelli, of Connecticut, is back by popular demand, after opening for Jeffrey Foucault at another Railway Cafe performance in March 2006. Rhode Islander Marc Douglas Berardo makes up the other half of the evening's entertainment.
"Marc's sharply drawn portraits cast a net on unusual and interesting characters and places," said Laini Sporbert, Railway Cafe organizer. "With a painter's eye for detail, and music firmly rooted in the great American sound, he sings about towns full of circus retirees, expatriates in Florida rum bars, union iron workers, aimless New York City debutantes, near-death car crashes and the changes that experience brings to everyone."
Tickets are $10 in advance, $12 at the door, $8 for students and seniors. To reserve your spot, call 413 664-6393 or e-mail railwaycafe@juno.com .

New North Adams Restaurant Approved for Liquor License
By Tammy DanielsiBerkshires Staff
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A new restaurant on Main Street, a provisions shop and a convenience store all got the nod from the License Commission on Tuesday.
Siblings Colleen and Sean Taylor are expanding their cuisine empire yet again with the establishment of Main & Mill in the old TD Bank. They were before the commission to apply for an all-alcohol license.
The building is owned by Ginko on Main Street LLC, which has granted 20 years exclusive possession of the property to Latent Builds as the developer. Jack and Suzy Wadsworth, behind Ginko, are development partners with Salvatore Perry and Karla Rothstein of Latent.
The bank closed in early 2021 and purchased by Ginko late that year. Plans for the property unveiled three years ago envisioned a restaurant, retail, a park and rooftop bar.
The building's hosted some pop-up eateries and is currently under construction for the new restaurant.
Colleen Taylor said the restaurant will be open seven days a week serving lunch and dinner, and be open early for coffee.
"It's not going to be a very big restaurant. It's about the same size as Trail House, except for Trail House has a bigger patio, so about the same seating," she said.
