PORTLAND, Maine — Rocker Peter Wolf says he's looking forward to trying some home-brewed beer and good wine when he arrives in Maine for a gig with the Portland Symphony Orchestra.
Wolf, the former frontman for the J. Geils Band, will narrate Igor Stravinsky's theatrical work "A Soldier's Tale" during Sunday's program at Merrill Auditorium.
Actor Judd Nelson, who is from Portland, was supposed to do the part but had to cancel. Wolf, who lives in Boston, was happy to step in.
He told the Portland Press Herald that he loves Portland's bookstores and bars.
