Bobby Fresh Fashion Show Cherry Lounge & Pit Fri., July 25, 9:00pm Tempe
Ah, the beloved T-shirt. First worn by the Brits in 1880, then called "under vests" by those same blokes (what a bunch of dorks), they weren't accepted as outerwear until a very tasty Marlon Brando stretched the cotton fibers over his lick-worthy torso and made every red blooded woman in the...

Teeth Mountain, Gary War, The Super Vacations, & The Bedouin Tribe The Willow House Fri., July 25, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
The music of Teeth Mountain. It doesn’t belong here. On Planet Earth. Or in the Milky Way. No, the eight-piece ensemble must be posting up and composing on some Coast to Coast-like netherworld before traveling to some pod in Baltimore (their so-called home base… we’re not buying... More >>
Party Foul! Fridays feat. DJs Kevin the Makeout Bandit, Bigie, Epidemic, BC/AD, Craig Citizen, & guests Homme Every other week Friday, 9:00pm Central Phoenix
Life apparently goes on for the DJs of the recently-closed nightspot Glam. Not only is Faux Show founder Jared Alan hunting for a new home for his decadent dance extravaganza, but Kevin the Makeout Bandit and the other beat-spinning boys of the former Word Up! Saturdays have debuted a new night... More >>
“The Chronicles of Narnia: The Exhibition” Arizona Science Center Daily from Sat., June 7 until Sun., October 26, 10:00am-5:00pm Central Phoenix
We're pretty sure that the prototypical fantasy geek and Christian apologist C.S. Lewis never imagined that his acclaimed children's series The Chronicles of Narnia would spawn something as scary-sounding as an "immersive marketing experience." So trust it to late capitalism to concoct such a... More >>

Outside the Valley
A couple years back, this "bloody-disgusting love story" from playwright Tracy Letts was made into a feature film directed by William Friedkin and starring Ashley Judd and Harry Connick Jr. It was a squirmer -- pretty tough for even hardened gore-hounds to sit through. So will this live version... More >>
Arizona Cardinals Training Camp 2008 Northern Arizona University Fri., July 25, 9:05am

Outside the Valley
Hoops season was a bust. The Diamondbacks are in freefall. The Coyotes . . . who the hell cares? Thank God it’s time for Arizona Cardinals Training Camp 2008. Our perennial laughingstocks – who’ve won a pitiful total of one playoff game in 61 years – have long been our most... More >>

Chandler
Think NCAA baseball is one big, ugly abomination on account of those aluminum bats? We think so, too, sometimes, though we do love the sport. That’s why the Arizona Collegiate Wood Bat League is so refreshing and truly the best of both worlds, meaning collegiate athletes get to show off... More >>

Arizona Duck (DUKW) Tour Pleasant Harbor Marina at Lake Pleasant Daily, 10:00am
more dates/times
Peoria
Military intelligence, as the old saw goes, is an oxymoron. But the dudes in khaki got it right when they introduced the odd amphibious vehicle called the DUKW during WWII. The bastard spawn of a U-boat and a Hummer helped American troops survive beach attacks like Normandy by transporting... More >>
"Branded and on Display" Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art Every week Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sat., June 14 until Sun., September 21 Central Scottsdale
It’s gotten so we don’t even see them, the carefully placed product endorsements that are part of everyday life. On an episode of American Idol, Simon Cowell raises to his lips a monstrous neon tumbler emblazoned with the Coca-Cola logo, and what we see is a man taking a drink. Our... More >>

"Chado Ralph Rucci" Phoenix Art Museum Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., March 21 until Sun., August 17 Central Phoenix
High fashion in the Phoenix area is still associated with statements like, "Why, yes, I did get this at Macy's." In this town, you're more likely to be judged by the overall hue and breadth of your tan than for your taste in Balenciaga footwear. This may change some when Barney's opens in... More >>
"Classical Illusion: Connie Imboden and Neil Borowicz" Mesa Contemporary Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., June 13 until Sun., August 10 Mesa
Artist Connie Imboden, whose work is featured in the “Classical Illusion” exhibit, says on her Web site, “There’s nothing more repulsive or seductive than flesh.” Yep. We agree, especially after checking out her underwater photographs that capture the human body in... More >>
"Early Phoenix: A Photographic Exhibit of Historic Downtown Phoenix" Rosson House Museum Every week Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., June 6 until Sun., September 28 Central Phoenix
Much of what once made it bustling and lovely to look at is gone, but the shadow of downtown Phoenix casts a long memory. It’s a dark shadow filled with pretty sites: The San Carlos Hotel on Central Avenue, with its street-front portico and its swoopy neon sign; the Henry Nace-designed... More >>

"Framed by Appearance: New Prints by Kathryn Maxwell" Mesa Contemporary Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., April 25 until Sun., August 3 Mesa
After a night of ego-tronic drinking, you wake up in a foreign bed, locking eyes with an unfamiliar woman. The beauty you followed home yesterday night was real cream, but this basement doppelgänger arouses nothing but your gag reflexes. Nevertheless, you suppress the urge to shit-n-bail... More >>
“Human & Animal Grossology” Arizona Science Center Daily from Sat., May 24 until Mon., September 1 Central Phoenix
A friend of ours freaks out when he realizes the molecules he's inhaling have been inside our lungs, too. You other wusses better check out “Human & Animal Grossology” at Arizona Science Center beginning Saturday, May 24, and get desensitized to all the emissions and secretions of us... More >>

East Phoenix
We’re all for hybrid cars and green cleaners, but if we have to look at one more painting exploring the dangers of deforestation, we’re gonna blow chunks. What’s next -- artists go PETA on our asses, hurling red tree sap at anyone not using recycled paper? At first glance,... More >>
"Mass Consumption" Mesa Contemporary Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., June 13 until Sun., August 10 Mesa
What’s one of our favorite things about Mesa Contemporary Arts besides the kickass exhibits? The gallery's sheer size, which makes it the perfect fit for "Mass Consumption," a show that associate curator Tiffany Fairall describes (in a ginormous nutshell) as "everything about popular... More >>
"Masters of Illusion: Unveiling the Mystery of Trompe l'Oeil" Tempe Center for the Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., May 3 until Sat., August 2 Tempe
The greatest fakers in the art world aren’t forgers, wanna-bes, or even drones churning out 20 Mona Lisas a day for oil-painting stores. They’re practitioners of trompe l’oeil. French for “fool the eye,” the art style was first used in ancient Greece, where landscape... More >>

more dates/times
Central Phoenix
When you’re 6 years old and have an imaginary friend, you get a roll of the eyes and a pat on the head. If you’re 30, you get a rubber room and a dose of anti-psychotics. Luckily for Neil Gillingham, artists get a free pass when it comes to having pretend pals at any age. After... More >>

He left the seat up. She painted the bedroom fuchsia. He used a photo of her mom for target practice. No wonder playwright Rich Orloff – whose Engagement Rules premières at Phoenix Theatre’s annual New Works Festival – takes his comic cues from other people’s... More >>

Central Phoenix
Whacking little white balls around delicately manicured lawns has long been a staple of outdoor activity around town. However, there’s always been one teensy-weensy problem with the whole setup, and it’s spelled s-u-m-m-e-r. There’s nothing quite like dripping sweat so profusely... More >>
"No Snow on the Broken Bridge: Video Work by Yang Fudong" Phoenix Art Museum Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Tue., July 8 until Sun., September 14 Central Phoenix
