Event Details:
The House of Blues. Anyone involved with the blues industry is aware of the misnomer. Yet thanks to a spirited fan base and energetic live performances, West of Memphis boasts a long-running residency at the San Diego venue. This is not a typo – they have been performing blues music on weekends regularly since early 2006. Imagine that!
Karl and Tom co-found the band in 1999 performing and recording with an array of sidemen. Despite being a Slurpee addict with intriguing views on Bigfoot and such a rabid soccer fan he married a Brasilian, Karl prefers to let the truth of their blues music speak for the band. Tom, being Hawaiian, doesn\’t have that much to say either. (Courtesy of Houseofblues.com/)

An Inspector Calls @ Lamb’s Players Theatre 2/12/2010 – 3/21/2010

An Inspector Calls @ Lamb’s Players Theatre 2/12/2010 – 3/21/2010Event Location: Lamb’s Players Theatre Event Dates(s): 2/12/2010 – 3/21/2010 Event Time(s): 8:00pm – 10:00pm Cost: $22 – $58 Phone Number:619-437-0600 Website/Tickets: (Click Here!) |
Event Details:
J.B. Priestley’s thought-provoker raises two initial questions: whodunit, and why has an inspector named Goole (pronounced “ghoul”) come to the Birling’s stately home? Arthur Birling just gave an impassioned speech about being responsible only to oneself and the masses be damned. What connection could the social elite have with the alleged suicide of a dirt-poor woman? The inspector – and just who IS this guy, a Sherlock Holmes of the conscience? – retraces the family’s tracks in search of the culprit. For Lamb’s Players, Mike Buckley’s stylish Edwardian set rises from a dirt floor, where impeccably polished shoes leave footprints. Robert and Deborah Gilmour Smyth codirected this taut, trimmed (from three acts to 90 minutes) staging. The cast almost tells the story with their eyes alone. Sudden flashes of recognition, or entrapment, break through serene façades. These aren’t melodramatic asides but looks reflecting a fear that things aren’t what they seem – and never were.
February 12 Through March 21
When:
* Sundays at 2 p.m.
* Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m.
* Wednesdays at 7:30 p.m.

Event Details:
Come enjoy a great classic play. From two families divided by hate, two young lovers are joined by fate. Shakespeare’s masterpiece is spun into a gorgeous opera by the rapturous beauty of Gounod’s melodies. Romeo and Juliet are defined by luminous arias as their tender romance unfolds through lush orchestration, and their families’ violent feud plays out in electrifying choruses. Opera’s new “golden couple”, Stephen Costello and Ailyn Perez, bring radiant voices to stage as Romeo and Juliet. Young, beautiful and wrapped in their own real-life romance, these exciting American singers will draw you into Gounod’s sensual, dreamy and voluptuous music, holding you spellbound as you breathlessly follow the tragic tale of these star-crossed lovers.

Event Details:
A toe-tapping salute to friendship, family, work and life’s simple pleasures. Drive a ways outta town, and you’ll come to a filling station run by Jim and L.M. Across the blacktop is the Double Cupp Diner, operated by Rhetta and Prudie Cupp. To look at it, you wouldn’t know that this little stop on Highway 57 is where all the action is. But trust us, once the boys get that guitar and bass fiddle revved up, you won’t want to be anywhere else.
Packed with hummable, hilarious songs like “Be Good or Be Gone,” “Tips,” and “The Night Dolly Parton Was Almost Mine,” it’s a foot-stomping good time that will make you want to order a big slice of cherry pie and a second cup of coffee, before you hit the road in search of life’s simple pleasures.
