We stopped by Lucchi Family Wine Cellars in Scranton for their new strawberry wine and left with a refreshing wine slushie. Now that Pennsylvania is allowing the sale of mixed drinks and cocktails to-go from bars, restaurants, and other businesses with a liquor license, be sure to support local when you're having a few drinks this holiday weekend! Learn more about the temporary law now on nepascene.com. #Scranton #WestScranton #ScrantonPA #Dunmore #DicksonCity #Pittston #WilkesBarre #NEPA #Pennsylvania #NEPAScene #wine #winery #slushies #wineslushies #drink #takeout #smallbusiness #supportlocal #supportlocalbusiness #supportsmallbusiness #supportsmallbusinesses #coronavirus #covıd19 #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #Lucchi (at Scranton, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAlMsKkjygn/?igshid=ouoronulkzbq

On the 10th anniversary of his death, many articles have been published today memorializing Peter Steele, the singer, songwriter, and bassist of gothic metal band Type O Negative, but only a few mention that he passed away in Scranton. Read a little about his time living on St. Ann’s Street and attending church there in a piece now on nepascene.com. If you remember seeing or meeting him at the time, let us known in the comments. #Scranton #ScrantonPA #WestScranton #WilkesBarre #WilkesBarrePA #NEPA #Northeast #Pennsylvania #NEPAScene #music #singer #vocalist #frontman #band #metal #gothmetal #gothicmetal #rock #RIP #PeterSteele #TypeONegative (at West Scranton, Scranton) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-_LCrNHJr5/?igshid=1uft5cglczqa1

Tickets to this show are on sale now via Eventbrite! As our readers may know, the family of NEPA Scene founder and editor Rich Howells lost their West Scranton home to a devastating fire on Christmas morning. Rich's mother Judy sustained severe burns while saving her husband and autistic son from the second floor of the home. She had to be airlifted to Lehigh Valley Hospital and is still recovering. The rest of the family has had to make it through the holidays with the help of friends and clothing and monetary donations. They have always struggled financially and did not have insurance. Since this tragedy, the arts community has risen up to help Rich's family through a GoFundMe campaign and this benefit. Come out to the F.M. Kirby Center on the 18th to see an amazing lineup of local and regional talent and help this special family in the process! #Scranton #ScrantonPA #WestScranton #WilkesBarre #WilkesBarrePA #NEPA #Pennsylvania #NEPAScene #NEPAScenePodcast #NEPApodcast #music #localmusic #musicscene #benefit #charity #concert #show #benefitshow #benefitconcert #community #supportlocal #arts #entertainment #FMKirbyCenter (at F.M.
