Silent Saturday: Blood and Sand Orpheum Theatre Sat., November 21, 7:00pm Central Phoenix
The ultimate doomed matinee idol, Rudolph Valentino, stars in the silent 1922 classic about a doomed matinee idol of a different time (a matador). Ron Rhode provides organ accompaniment on the Orpheum's humongous Wurlitzer. More >>
The 46th Annual Dallas Welcomes JFK Luncheon Deus Ex Machina Sat., November 21, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
Depository. Single-bullet theory. Grassy knoll. Pink suit. On Saturday, November 21, Backward Theatre iconicizes the events surrounding a certain sunny, autumn day in Texas over four decades ago with its self-described “strange” and “experimental” The 46th Annual Dallas... More >>
Chandails, Little Teath, Finding Grandpa's Monsters, Pods, & more Trunk Space Sat., November 21 Central Phoenix
Listening to "Paper Bag," the scuzzy, shuffling opening track from Phoenix-based garage rockers The Chandails' forthcoming EP, it's easy to imagine a good-for-nothing street gang, maybe the "cholos performing satanic rituals while eating pozolé" described on the band's Web site. But the... More >>
CenPhoTV.com Show feat. The Love Me Nots, The Necronauts, & The Surfside IV The Ruby Room Sat., November 21, 9:00pm Central Phoenix
Whether it’s music, news or the arts, when you want the best round-up of everything going on in downtown Phoenix (and only downtown Phoenix) you go to CenPho.tv. But when you want to actually hear the best music from downtown Phoenix? Well, you go to the CenPho.tv One Year Anniversary... More >>
Phoenix Antique Market Arizona State Fairgrounds Sat., November 15
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
“Retail” is a six-letter word. Don’t spell it. Don’t speak it. Heaven forbid, don’t pay it. That’s our motto, and the sentiment may be growing on you, too. Problem is, your car has carved a groove from your driveway to the local mall. You’re like a fancy lab... More >>
The Little Dog Laughed Phoenix Theatre's Little Theatre Sun., November 22, 2:00pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
The only thing better than a play by Douglas Carter Beane is a play by Douglas Carter Beane -- the author of As Bees in Honey Drown, the Broadway musical Xanadu, and the movie To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar -- presented by Nearly Naked Theatre. Therefore, the Valley... More >>
Phoenix Suns vs. Detroit Pistons US Airways Center Sun., November 22, 6:00pm Central Phoenix
Outside of the San Antonio Spurs, few teams stir our ire like the Detroit Pistons. We're not sure why, but it can probably be traced back to the Bad Boys days and their use of inelegant, physically brutal play, which yielded championships in 1989 and 1990. While the team’s familiar... More >>
The Kickback Padre's Modern Mexican Every week Sunday, 2:00pm Central Phoenix
How's this for a lazy Sunday-afternoon experience? Hang out with Power 98.3 personality Karlie Hustle and the hottie divas of the Fresh Fiends on the funky and laid-back patio of Padre's Modern Mexican Cuisine, 1044 East Camelback Road, while resident DJs M2 and Tricky T spin downtempo,... More >>
Sunday Night Nonsense feat. drossSavant, La La Lumberjack, QGC, & Because is Not a Reason Revolver Records Sun., November 22, 6:00pm-8:30pm Central Phoenix
Steve Zimmerman and T.J. Jordan's used record emporium has proved to be a big hit since relocating to Roosevelt Street earlier this year, giving downtown Phoenix music buffs another spot to dig for vinyl treasures. The joint is getting that much cooler now that it's launching a weekly... More >>
The Haymarket Squares, Mancub and Wooden Indian, & more The Lost Leaf Sun., November 22, 9:30pm Central Phoenix
The three members of this local act titled their album Punkgrass for the People, which is also a pretty accurate description for their sound: heavy on the rootsy/Americana influences and brimming with contentious socio-political lyrics about the evils of society. Get an earful when they play... More >>
"Robots: The Interactive Exhibition" Arizona Science Center Daily from Sun., September 27 until Sun., February 14 Central Phoenix
The movie it's based on might be aesthetically suspect (20th Century Fox's Robots), but this touring exhibition's not. It features kickin' stuff like the "Movie Star Robots Hall of Fame" (featuring Robby the Robot, C-3PO, and Gort), the "Crosstown Express" 3-D transporter ride, and "Industrial... More >>
"Picturing Maricopa" Burton Barr Central Library Daily from Mon., October 26 until Sun., December 6 Central Phoenix
From Kim Kardashian’s black eye to Courteney Cox and David Arquette designing jewelry, it seems anything goes in the name of good deeds as long as a horn toots in the process. But the community photography project “Picturing Maricopa” is decidedly toot-less. Pairing 15 of the... More >>
Polka Dot Dot Dot, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Kids Day, From Our Lexicographers, & So Sorry Charlie Trunk Space Tue., November 24, 7:00pm Central Phoenix
In a way it seems appropriate that the second full length album from Polka Dot Dot is entitled Syzygy, a term used to describe the alignment of three or more celestial bodies in the same gravitational system along a line. If you were feeling sufficiently poetic you could say that was the same... More >>
Phoenix Suns vs. Memphis Grizzlies US Airways Center Wed., November 25, 7:00pm Central Phoenix
The inconsistent but usually high-scoring Griz, led by young guns Rudy Gay and O.J. Mayo (pictured), hit US Airways to take on Nash, Amar'e, and the Suns. More >>
Wednesday Nights at Conspire Conspire Every week Wednesday, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
Thank goodness Conspire, one of our favorite coffee shops and hang-out spots, is reviving the normally comatose downtown Wednesday nights. The Conspire Open Mic outside features local wordsmiths and folk musicians, including Michelle Blades, a ukulele-strumming songstress who will take your... More >>
Groove Candy's Pre-Thanksgiving bash, PHX Nightclub Wed., November 25, 9:00pm Central Phoenix
If you're one of those cats who've been Groove Candy since the hip-hop night went the way of Jam-Master Jay back in September, Karlie Hustle is gonna give y'all another lick. The Power 98.3 personality is reviving the event for one night only on Wednesday, November 25, in honor of Groove... More >>
Arizona International Auto Show Phoenix Convention Center Thu., November 26, 9:00am-7:00pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
Pressure. Queen and David Bowie have been under it, Paramore’s been feeling it getting closer, and Billy Joel’s been dealing with it since 1982. Where to turn? How about the Arizona International Auto Show at Phoenix Convention Center? “You don’t have to be afraid,”... More >>
Turkey Tits SideBar Thu., November 26, 9:00pm Central Phoenix
When it comes down to it, pumpkin pie is hardly manna from Heaven. Same goes for the mincemeat and rhubarb versions, for that matter. In fact, unless Anthony Bourdain is running the kitchen, whatever post-gorge pastry that’s going down your gullet will likely be pretty... More >>
"Geoffrey Beene: Trapeze" Phoenix Art Museum Every week Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sat., November 7 until Sun., March 7 Central Phoenix
Sarah Palin may think she can smack her googly grinning face on the map by Going Rogue, but, Sarah darling, it's been done. Besides, it takes more than a Lindsay Lohan-like resignation speech and a book deal to be a true rogue. Palin’s got a long way to go if she wants to catch up to the... More >>
Josh Pearce's "f+: Order of the Arcane" Red Hot Robot Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sat., November 14 until Fri., December 11 Central Phoenix
We’re in the midst of a toy revolution. Bratz dolls are kicking Barbie’s ass, and today’s G.I. Joes are deployed with enough plastic weaponry to blow Strawberry Shortcake to kingdom come. Not so good for the kiddies, but awesome for artist Josh Pearce, a.k.a. f+, who created a... More >>
Ornament Marketplace Heard Museum Fri., November 27, 10:00am-5:30pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
We don’t like hanging out with snowbirds any more than you do, but Heard Museum’s Ornament Marketplace is one of those events that’s worthy in spite of the slow-driving minions from Minnesota lookin’ to score Southwestern booty for the grandkids up in Mankato. This is... More >>
Dave Quan/Luster Kaboom's “Hogwash” Closing Reception Pravus Sat., November 28, 12:00pm-4:00pm Central Phoenix
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a name can be worth a million bucks. Would anyone notice a singer named Brian Warner or Stefani Germanotta? Hell, no. But change their names to Marilyn Manson and Lady Gaga and you’ve got a couple of moneymakers. Local cartoonist Dave Quan... More >>
Alex Karpovsky Film Festival: Woodpecker Space 55 Theatre Sat., November 28, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
Since it’s called “No Festival Required” rather than “No Festival Allowed,” perhaps Steve Weiss’ downtown film series doesn’t lose all credibility in sheepishly admitting to sponsorship of, well, a festival. Especially since the subject of No Fest’s Alex... More >>
Alex Karpovsky Film Festival: Trust Us: This Is All Made Up Phoenix Art Museum Sun., November 29, 1:00pm Central Phoenix
Since it’s called “No Festival Required” rather than “No Festival Allowed,” perhaps Steve Weiss’ downtown film series doesn’t lose all credibility in sheepishly admitting to sponsorship of, well, a festival. Especially since the subject of No Fest’s Alex... More >>
George Is Dead Herberger Theater Center Sat., November 21, 2:00pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
Everyone is plotzing because Marlo Thomas is coming to town to do an Arizona Theatre Company play, but how about this? That play, George Is Dead, was written and directed by Elaine May. Hello! Elaine May! As in Elaine May and Mike Nichols. As in Heaven Can Wait and The Birdcage and the... More >>
