| Electric Campfire Acoustic Jam Sons of Hermann Hall | Every week Thursday, 6:00pm | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
| We're sick of your attitude. Every week, you expect someone else to entertain you—to dance, sing, dunk a basketball, whatever-and that's selfish. Put forth some effort, and be an entertainer instead of an entertainee, slacker! Try the Thursday night acoustic jam session at Sons of Hermann Hall,... More >> | |||
| Black Tie Dynasty, The Burning Hotels, Telegraph Canyon, Ishi House of Blues | Sat., November 29 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 The Great Black Tie Dynasty Debate continues to rage through the hallways of the Dallas Observer, echoing over the clack of keyboards and cursing editors. On one side, BTD proponents praise the quartet's sexy, moody oeuvre, while the anti-BTD contingent bad-mouths them as derivative Interpol... More >> |

| The Capitol One Bank Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot Open Location | Thu., November 27, 9:00am | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 Cliched Holiday Generalization No. 1: With the holidays coming, and considering the booze required to endure family and office parties, you're gonna be packing on the pounds starting today.

| versus Los Angeles Clippers American Airlines Center | Tue., December 2, 7:30pm | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 Frankly, we're tired of talking about what's going on with the Mavs these days, so instead let us concentrate on former Golden State point guard Baron Davis, duped this summer into moving south to Los Angeles by buddy Elton Brand, only to have Brand bolt for Philly shortly after. Sucks to be... More >> |

| versus Edmonton Oilers American Airlines Center | Sun., November 30, 5:00pm | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 The Stars' season has, so far, seen a bit of the ol' back-and-forth, the win-and-lose, the come-and-go. Stats notwithstanding and because I'm feeling a little excited that it's chilly and it's hockey season (yeah, me and three other people, I know), I'm going to give you a "hat trick," so to...

| Hillary Swank Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center | Tue., November 25, 8:00pm | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 I've never liked slapstick humor, and I realize this puts me in a category with about only 1 percent of the rest of the world. Even still, I feel little after watching people clothesline themselves with 2-by-4 a la Jackass and, I really can't handle witnessing beer being funneled up someone's... More >> |

| Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs Dallas Museum of Art | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., October 3 until Sun., May 17 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |

 A long overdue trip to IKEA can act as a reminder that there's a designer in everyone--if they can make a 200-square-foot space livable, just imagine what you could do if you were given a shot. Now you get your chance to show your flair for interior design as the Dallas Museum of Art's new... More >> |

| Late Nights at the Dallas Museum of Art Dallas Museum of Art | Third Friday of every month | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 Makes sense that Starbucks, which serves wake-the-dead coffee, would sponsor a program about the afterlife for the after hours: the Late Nights at the Dallas Museum of Art series from 6 p.m. to midnight the third Friday of each month. On November 21, weary parents can get wired on triple shots... More >> |
|||
| Deck the Halls Old Red Museum | Daily from Sat., November 15 until Sun., January 11 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 Old Red's getting into the spirit of things, though they're doing it a little late by modern standards. After all, everybody else had their halls decked the day before Halloween. Better late than never as they always say--of course, we don't know who they are exactly, but we're told they are... More >> |

| DJ Jonny 5, Format Obar | Every week Monday | Downtown & Deep Ellum |
|
 A downtown underground clusterfuck of young professionals that straddle the fine line between myspace and adulthood. With ample seating but great dance music, Obar can't decide between being a lounge or dance club and yet somehow gives off a great unpretensious vibe that puts it coolness way... More >> |

| Gospel Brunch House of Blues | Every week Sunday | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
| Feeling hungry? Go to the House of Blues on Sunday for their Gospel Brunch and have your body and spirit filled up. What does a Yankee boy know about gospel brunches? Well, to be honest, not a heck of a lot. What I do know is that I like good gospel music and delicious Southern food. Besides,... More >> | |||
| The Great Russian Nutcracker Majestic Theatre | Daily from Thu., November 20 until Sun., November 23 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 There is a holiday story that's bigger than Santa's bag of toys. That blows the nose off Rudolph. That melts Frosty and burns Alfie the Christmas tree...no, never mind, no one messes with Alfie (regardless of his association with John Denver). This legendary tale travels through reality, Nod...

| Is it the real turtle soup? Holly Johnson Gallery | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., November 22 until Wed., December 24 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 "Is it good turtle soup or merely the mock?" That's a line from Cole Porter's "At Long Last Love," written in 1938. Well to be sure, I had to research what the hell is actually involved in turtle soup. According to my Google search, my instincts were correct, and it's exactly what it implies.... More >> |

| King Bucks Adair's |
Sat., July 5 more dates/times |
Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 If you'd asked two years ago, I would have said that the only reason for a cover band to exist is to make money and watch the crazy shit that goes down at weddings, and that's coming from someone who's been in one. Yeah, I admit it--the Ronnie Dobbs Band could "rock your corporate event" with... More >> |

| Hanging Out with Boys and Little Cloths Latino Cultural Center | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Fri., September 12 until Sat., November 29 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 If you've seen the movie Top Gun you're no doubt familiar with the Kenny Loggins song "Playing With The Boys," which perfectly scores that film's classic beach volleyball scene. It also happened to be the first thing I thought of when confronted with the title of the Latino Cultural Center's... More >> |

| The Light in the Piazza Theatre Three | Every week Thursday, Sunday from Thu., November 6 until Sun., November 23, 7:30pm | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 I've always wanted to go to Italy to look at art and consume copious amounts of pasta and red wine, but given the state of my checking account, this musical will likely be the closest I get to Florence anytime soon. Based on the novella, The Light in the Piazza is set in 1950s Florence and Rome... More >> |

| Little Red Riding Hood Open Location |
Every week Saturday from Sat., November 29 until Sun., December 21, 7:30pm more dates/times |
Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 There are as many versions of the story of Little Red Riding Hood as there are matador pants in Prince's closet. There have been multitudinous attempts to put a fresh spin on this fairy tale. The most famous is by the Brothers Grimm in the 1800s. It has the wolf swallowing Grandmother and Red... More >> |

| Filming Kennedy: Home Movies from Dallas The Sixth Floor Museum |
Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, 10:00am-6:00pm more dates/times |
Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 Home movies are considered very personal, but for 11 people who lived in Dallas in the 1960s, those personal movies also memorialize a profound moment in history. Surely everyone of a certain age remembers what they were doing on November 22, 1963. Until President John F. Kennedy was shot, it... More >> |

| SMU for the North Texas Food Bank Food Drive Open Location | Daily from Sat., November 15 until Mon., November 24 | Downtown & Deep Ellum | |
 Redistributionist-In-Chief-Elect Barack Obama will soon rescue us from the horrible poverty created by the evil Bush regime. But until January 20, 2009, we'll need charities like North Texas Food Bank. The Meadows School of the Arts, SMU-in-Legacy and Resounding Harmony choir will help restock... More >> |
