Its a fabulous weekend in Western North Carolina.  The Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands  is underway at the U.S. Cellular Center in downtown Asheville.  Folkmoot features traditional dancers from Chile, Ecuador, Bangladesh, Quebec and Puerto Rico.  Downtown After 5 features the Asheville All-Stars show.  The club scene is rockin and there's plenty of live theater to choose from, including Driving Miss Daisy at Flat Rock Playhouse and SART offers the musical "Pump Boys and Dinettes".  And the always awesome Brevard Music Center 2015 Summer Music Festival is in full bloom.  Fans of Sherlock Holmes may want to check out  the new film Mr. Holmes starring Ian McKellen.    Tony takes a look at some of what's happening in the region.
