ASU Football vs. NAU Sun Devil Stadium Sat., August 30, 7:00pm Tempe
With a football program of ASU’s caliber, a contest against the NAU Lumberjacks is a guaranteed notch in the win column. However, as we learned in 2003 and 2006 when the boys from Flagstaff came to town, not-so-impressive showings by the Devils can spell later-season doom. In the ’03... More >>
AZ Bully Expo 2008 Mesa Convention Center Sat., August 30, 10:00am-6:00pm Mesa
Are you still having emotional issues because of that punk ass bully from the fourth grade? Well, you'll have to keep going to your shrink for that, dude. However, if you like tough looking pooches, then you may want to hit up the AZ Bully Expo, which will feature everything you'd ever want to... More >>
Dog-Eared Pages Used Books Grand Opening Dog-Eared Pages Used Books Sat., August 30 North Phoenix
Every year, like clockwork, New Times bestows our Best of Phoenix Bookstore award on Tempe’s Changing Hands. There’s no collusion or favoritism; the long-lived indie’s indisputably the best. While the new Dog-Eared Pages Used Books is unlikely to dethrone Changing Hands, any biz... More >>
Hi My Name is Ryan feat. Ryan Avery Trunk Space Sat., August 30, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
Fan or hater, you've kept tabs on Ryan Avery. If you weren't already up on his exploits, then the New Times cover story piqued your interest (“Hi, My Name Is Ryan,” August 3, 2006, Benjamin Leatherman). Then you heard about Paul Eagleston and Stephen Rose's documentary Hi My Name Is... More >>
Silverio feat, Maria Daniela y su Sonido Lasser, Devon Disaster, DJ Ponediscos, & DJ Kevin M.O.B Tio Leo's Mexican Grill and Cantina Sat., August 30, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
Hey, gringos, look what you’ve been missing. Namely, Silverio, a south-of-the-border sensation who will seduce all five of your senses with a wink of his eye and a thrust of his pelvis. The Mexican love child of Peaches and Günther (you know, the gold lamé-loving Swedish sex... More >>
“Midstream: New Ceramics From the Heartland” ASU Art Museum Ceramics Research Center Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., August 23 until Sat., February 28, 11:00am-5:00pm Tempe
Ceramicists always wonder why they’re left in the dust while painters and sculptors get the glory. Let’s face it, clay boy, no one’s gonna care about your pot unless they can smoke it. Maybe that’s why Midwestern artists Teri Frame, Alex Hibbitt, and Liz Zacher decided to... 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 >>
“The Premier Photographers of Punk Rock” Perihelion Arts Every week Saturday from Sat., August 2 until Sat., August 30, 1:30pm-7:00pm Central Phoenix
The punk-rock ethos, if such a thing existed, hardly left room for calculated image creation. But an impressive punk iconography remains, thanks in part to the likes of Ruby Ray and Dawn Wirth. Armed with a camera and a scant supply of expensive film, Ray and Wirth honed their photog skills... More >>
Dearly Departed Chyro Arts Venue Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., August 21 until Sat., September 6, 8:00pm South Scottsdale
Reading the press release for Dearly Departed, a play in the first week of its run at Chyro Arts Venue, comparisons to William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying are inevitable. However, instead of hicks transporting a corpse in a pine-box coffin, the David Bottrell/Jesse Jones comedy follows the... More >>
The Rocky Horror Show presented by Nearly Naked Theatre Phoenix Theatre's Little Theatre Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 15 until Sat., September 13 Central Phoenix
There’s a lyric from one of the Richard O’Brien tunes in his intergalactically famous The Rocky Horror Show that goes, “It was great when it all began/I was a regular Frankie fan.” It’s a lyric that has proven more true than the then-starving young playwright could have... More >>
Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Chase Field Fri., August 29, 6:40pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
It seems as if everybody, especially Los Angeles Dodgers fans, is creaming him or herself over the Dodgers’ acquisition of outfielder Manny Ramirez. True, the slugger is leading the team’s charge toward NL West supremacy. But just wait until he ditches his best behavior and the loose... 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 >>
Castles -n- Coasters Summer Fun Days Castles -n- Coasters Daily from Thu., July 3 until Mon., September 1 North Phoenix
The Castles -n- Coasters Summer Fun Days promotion is a smoking deal -- if you don’t spontaneously combust. We’re just tossin’ out a caveat emptor, ’cause you should know up front that your $15 buys unlimited rides on the theme park’s attractions, plus a free round of... More >>

Mesa
Gigantic, pissed-off chickens with teeth. That’s the impression created by the imposing models on display in the “Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origins of Flight” exhibit. After you check out these dentally impressive fowl, run for your life to Arizona Science Center and marvel at... More >>
Frank Caliendo Tempe Improv Fri., August 29, 8:00pm
more dates/times
Tempe
Among comedy geeks, Frank Caliendo is a divider like no other. First off, he’s an impressionist, and not since the halcyon days of Rich Little-as-George Burns has the skill been comparatively viable to, say, humorous hypnotism or ventriloquism. Second, his interpretations of Dubya, John... 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 >>
Kollectiv Art and Design Group Show Kollectiv Art and Design Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 1 until Sun., August 31 Central Phoenix
You grew up in a fascist household where creativity wasn’t encouraged. At age 2, when you drew an abstract version of your dog, your parents took note of its asymmetry and shook their heads critically. They couldn’t tolerate anything but pure genius, and if that wasn’t... More >>
"Local Produce" Lisa Sette Gallery Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., July 10 until Sat., September 27 Central Scottsdale
You buy your books from Amazon.com and your housewares from IKEA, and you only grant foreigners and their charming accents passage rights to your uterus. What’s wrong with you? Haven’t you ever heard about giving back to the community, about appreciating and encouraging local... More >>
Night Gallery Tempe Marketplace Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, 6:00pm-9:00pm Tempe
Commodification of art is nothing new (we especially like those Hello Kitty vibrators), but a respectable art gallery slumming in a mall is right up there with Walmarts on sacred burial grounds, even if it’s exactly the kind of "social embeddedness" that Joe Baker, ASU's Director of... More >>
Night Splash Waterworld Safari Every week Saturday from Sat., June 28 until Sat., August 30, 7:00pm-11:00pm Glendale
It's pretty obvious when summer’s come to town. Just look at the children. They've spent about a million hours reenacting The Little Mermaid and Finding Nemo in the backyard pool, so their hair is completely bleached out and their eyes are all bloodshot. Instead of looking like Disney... 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
Phoenix Art Museum has always had a thing for Asian art. Its permanent collection of Chinese, Japanese, and Southeast Asian artworks is not only massive, but also well-regarded. The "No Snow on the Broken Bridge: Video Work by Yang Fudong" exhibit is another amazing gem in PAM’s new series... More >>
"NOW: Selections From the Ovitz Family Collection" ASU Art Museum at Nelson Fine Arts Center Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sat., June 7 until Sun., September 28 Tempe
Onetime Hollywood strongman Michael Ovitz used to make news for all the wrong reasons: voicing paranoiac slurs about the “gay mafia,” causing schisms in the Mickey Mouse fantasy factory during his star-crossed Disney stint, and manhandling the help as documented in Suzanne... More >>
Phoenix Fear Film Festival Chandler Cinemas Sat., August 30, 12:00pm-2:00am Chandler
Your vegan upbringing turned you into a meat-craving psychopath. At age 9, you offed your hippie parents and hid their bodies in your digestive tract. Ever since, you’ve found it hard to control your beastly instincts and have started roaming with the zombie crowd. At night, you loot the... More >>
