The spirit of the late Louis Jordan inhabits The Royal Crown Revue, a neo-jumpin'-jive crew from the City of the Angels--so-called "Kings of Gangster Bop" and undisputed rulers of the New Hot Swing. The Revue returns to the Valley on Wednesday, June 10, for a show at Club Rio, 430 North Scottsdale Road in Tempe. The all-ages concert starts at 8 p.m. Tickets, available at the club and Dillard's, are $17. 894-0533, 503-5555.

Writer Debra Waterhouse, plugging her book Outsmarting the Mid-Life Fat Cell, claims that "mid-life weight gain" is what a majority of women between 35 and 55 cite as their biggest concern. Depressing as that priority may be, it's the topic of a talk by Waterhouse, whose program attempts to lower middle-aged fat safely and naturally. The author speaks and signs her book at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 10, at Borders Books & Music at Biltmore Fashion Park, 24th Street and Camelback, Suite 200. 957-6660.
