After a bicycling accident prompted Amy Grant to postpone her Fargo Theatre show last fall, the rescheduled date is almost here . Friday night the singer plays hits from her 45-year recording career, spanning both pop tunes like “The Next Time I Fall” and her contemporary Christian roots, like “El Shaddai” and “Angels”. With six Grammys and 22 Dove Awards, her career path earned her a spot as a Kennedy Center Honoree last year, alongside Gladys Knight, George Clooney, Tania Leon and U2. Tickets are $79.50, plus fees at jadepresents.com .

Let’s try this again. After last Saturday’s winter storm prompted the postponement of the St. Patrick’s Parade, things are set to roll this Saturday when the weather should be...better? Well, the Irish have survived occupation and famine, so freezing weather can be overcome with layers of green. The action kicks off at 11 a.m. at the intersection of Center Avenue and Eighth Street in Moorhead and rolls west across the bridge to NP Avenue in Fargo. The route turns north at Broadway and carries on to Fourth Avenue North, Fargo.
