Organizers of the Alabama National Fair are hopeful that events can return to normal this fall, after they had to make adjustments last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The Kiwanis Club of Montgomery announced today that the 68th annual Alabama National Fair will be held from October 8-17 at Garrett Coliseum, with the popular racing pigs, the sea lions splash and the Zerbini Family Circus all coming back.
“I think this year is more normal than people realize,” Alabama National Fair Executive Director Randy Stephenson told Alabama News Network. “It’s just the expectations and what is going to happen, we don’t know. There is a little unknown, but we know we’re going to be able to have the fair,” he said.

Not that long ago, Alter Ego was in the same situation as a lot of other bands during the pandemic.
“There was nothing to do,” said vocalist Ray Humphrey.
Shows cancelled again and again. Even after restrictions began to let up, finding an open venue with a stage big enough to fit a 6-piece rock and roll band proved difficult.
“There’s not many places to play for our style band,” Humphrey said.
Then came Joe Smith and The Junkyard, a monthly open mic event hosted at the Montgomery Performing Arts Centre. Alter Ego was more than glad to be a part of it.
