Early Buzz: Steve Perry surfaces, 'Wet Hot' show, more

Morning, everyone! I had a great holiday weekend, and hope you can say the same. My brother came to visit, and on Saturday he took me to see Jessy Carolina & The Hot Mess, a traditional jazz band that really knows how to put on a show. They play in the area often, so I'm pretty sure that won't be the last time I check 'em out.
