Anxious for live ditties? Try Sammons Park, in front of the Winspear Opera House in Dallas, TX. It all starts at 6:30 p.m., during the month of October. On a Thursday. The best part is, the live performers are people I've actually heard of.
Check out the Roomsounds on October 2.
The Index festival will be in Dallas this weekend. Article here.
Use your index finger to point to your favorite band,

Ovarian Cancer Awareness. It's Cool. And, I Mean Really Cool! ... On October 29, Don't Monkey Around
Don't Forget: September is ovarian cancer awareness month.
Become Oh-so-aware.
You were just thinking, where can I take a class on staying motivated at work?
Check out Southern Methodist University's offerings for non-official book learnin'.
I say it in the spirit of 'Back To School,' however, that season has ended.
It will be a chilly night on Oct. 29 as the Arctic Monkeys grace the stage in Grand Prairie, TX.
Official site of the touring mammals.

Bracelets in honor of ovarian cancer awareness
Stay focused!

Remember the Alamo and When Dallas Rocked
I knew you were just thinking, "when will there be a documentary about the Dallas music scene airing on PBS?"
It just so happens, you can check out When Dallas Rocked (click for an article talking about a previously released version) tomorrow at 8 p.m. on Dallas' PBS station, which is KERA. Through your tube, you too can experience when Dallas was actually cool.
For your next flick feel free to try the Alamo Drafthouse in Richardson, Texas.
Brief Synopsis:
Good marks for: good service, interesting decor. Not good marks for: while it's fun to eat dinner while you're watching a movie, it's hard to eat in the dark, AND, very hot weather (not the theater's fault).
Roll credits, please, or in other words, have a great week.

Seeing Stars
See stars on August 23 until 10:00 p.m. at the Shores Park in Rockwall, TX. Located at 2358 Shores Blvd, there will be members of the Texas Astronomical Society on hand, to explain things to little old you.
Two addendums: it is held the fourth Saturday of every month, and goes until 10:00 pm. You can find more information on the Texas astronomical society site, and the Calendar tab will help those who love calendars.
The stargazers themselves call the park one of the "nicest neighborhood public parks" in Rockwall, TX, but you can decide for yourself and give them a review, after you go!
Read more about this great physicist who had much to do with discovering our universe. 1643... those were the days!
The 'KXT' Summer Cut festival is on August 15, and commences at 4:30 p.m. Tickets.
The End.
The heat is still haunting!

Polka Is The New Black, I Mean Polka Is The New...Fill In The Blank --Anyway, You Catch The Drift
Got you covered with polka, pre-packaged pop and Pan-African items!
Tonight catch Brave Combo at Poor David's Pub in Dallas, Texas. The doors blast open at 7:30 p.m. Not much notice, I know...but you never know! Brave combo is known as a polka band, but it may be worth a Dallas outing. Grab your brave combo.
They are from Denton, TX.
Katy Perry will be heading to the American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX on October 2. She will appear magically and prismatically the next day at the same location. Both shows begin at 7:30 p.m.
The Pan-African Connection is your place for unique cards, significantly large jewelry, and a multitude of other items.
From the store
Head over to 828 Fourth Avenue in Dallas, TX, and you will also see sculptures and carvings, some of which is art, for sale.
You are not dreaming, and I did mention polka.
Have a restful weekend.

Beware of Cool Cones. And, Was That a Jalapeno-hot Movie, Or a Jalapeno-hot Concert?
Got you covered with cones, music and a movie:
Delicious ice cream is only a few steps away at Beth Marie's old fashioned Ice Cream.
Reminder: you're not a Texan until you've tried Frito Pie (online, the price is 4.45).
Phox.. phox, are they a fox? What do they do, you ask?
They sing!!!
In particular, if you go to 2704 Elm St. in Dallas, Texas tomorrow night (June 28 at precisely 10 pm), you will hear them sing. They hail from mid or mid-Southern Wisconsin and have used their small town background to inspire their thoughtful gaggle of tunes.
The movie Hellion is gracing the texas theatre (historic texas theatre). Now. You are free to watch over the weekend.
The Jalapeno Half is tomorrow. I know this is a good run for you if you like jalapenos. Or if you like anything jalapeno-flavored.
Or, have ever seen a jalapeno in the store.
May you have a great weekend. (And great Fourth of July!)

Summer Book You Cannot Put Down, Trinity Groves, And The Oklahoma Redneck
You've been waiting, hoping for that summer book that will light up your life!!!
Reflections, by Anne Seebaldt, is that VERY book. A talented writer has poured her energies into the book of poetry, with at least one poem dating back to 1982. Go read.
I know you can make toast, but sooner or later you'll need to go to a restaurant. Why not try Trinity Groves?
Branded for a while as the "cool, new" place to go... I am being forced to mention it by incessant articles. You can even make a reservation for apparently any one of six restaurants at the above web site.
1,2,3... pay homage to Margaret Hunt Hill. (Restaurants are in the shadow of the margaret hunt hill bridge).
Got country on your mind? Perfect solution: the Gexa Energy Pavilion will host Blake Shelton, "Oklahoma Redneck" on June 21. It is at 7 p.m. Pickup truck required.
The heat is haunting! Stay cool.
The end.

Tubing, The Gexa Energy Pavilion, And... Fried Kentucky Fried Chicken?
So you want some June activities?
Haven't you been wondering, "where is a good place to canoe?" Go to Panther Island Pavilion in Fort Worth, Texas on Sunday June 8.
You can canoe to your heart's content, while having a Sunday Funday.
Tomorrow is National running day.
Ok. Since the above events are the ONLY things happening in June. Here is one in July, and one in August!
In the Huh? I just wanted to dress like the Statue of Liberty category: Run the 7 kilometer or 4 kilometer course at Fair Park in Dallas, TX. After, attend a "festive celebration" in historic Fair Park while drinking as many beers as possible and dreaming of the fried Kentucky fried chicken (well, really... fried everything!) you can eat when the State Fair of Texas opens. The run takes place when? July 4.
The KXT Summer Cut musical show is happening August 15 at Gexa Energy Pavilion in Dallas TX. If you are a big fan of The Oh Hello's you can buy tickets tomorrow at 10:00 am. Get your mouse in gear.
Stay cool.
