Daniel Rodriguez
Thanksgiving eve, six to nine. The biggest bar night of the year in most towns, and Ron's puts a live set behind it instead of just a crowd.

Rosewood
Labor Day weekend Saturday, three hours of music in the bar from six. Expect the room busier than usual for a holiday weekend, so come early for a table.
Clay McElwee
Back in the bar for a Wednesday, six to nine. McElwee plays this room a few times a season, which makes him about as close to a house act as Ron's has.
Trivia Night
Weekly Thursday trivia at the Uwchlan Avenue bar, six-thirty start. Ron's kitchen works from scratch, so dinner during the quiz is a real dinner, not bar snacks.

Simple Gifts with opener Good Intentions
Folk duo Simple Gifts play the Mennonite church fellowship hall with Good Intentions opening. Desserts and drinks are served, the room seats maybe a hundred, and nobody sits far from the stage.
Perkasie Patchwork Coffeehouse: Simple Gifts
Simple Gifts play folk from a dozen traditions, with Good Intentions opening. Church fellowship hall on Chestnut, desserts and drinks at the back, close enough to watch the fingering.
