Matt Pryor and The Terrible Twos Modified Arts Wed., August 20, 6:00pm Central Phoenix
Once upon a time, rock ’n’ roll was about bad dudes singing about bad shit, and it was very, very bad for you. One of my formative images was punk progenitor Iggy Pop stage-diving onto a field of shattered glass. The dude rose slowly, like a demon out of ooze, gushing corpuscles and... More >>
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Jobing.com Arena Wed., August 20, 7:30pm Glendale
The former Traveling Wilbury is on a roll these days — in addition to reuniting his pre-fame band Mudcrutch for a much-appreciated CD, he has found a growing number of younger fans during his current tour. According to reports, a large number of 20-somethings have flocked to his shows... 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 >>

Central Phoenix
The San Diego Padres. Ugh. What to say about these NL West cellar dwellers? [Insert enough white space here to fill up the article’s predetermined word count.] Aw, man. That ain’t going to fly with our editor. Plus, we want to keep our job, so we’ll gab as best we can.... 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

Copper Star Coffee’s Poetry Series Copper Star Coffee Third Wednesday of every month Central Phoenix
Our assignment, which we chose to accept, was to sling ink about Copper Star Coffee’s Poetry Series setup on the third Wednesday of every month. We hoped the tattooed stud pouring our mud would spill the beans about the upcoming assonance-shaking and alliteration-popping, but —... 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 >>
"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 >>

"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 >>
Salt River Tubing & Recreation Salt River Tubing & Recreation Daily from Sat., May 3 until Tue., September 30, 9:00am-7:00pm Mesa
Rednecks tend to be attracted to large bodies of water. Don’t believe us? How else to explain the “Redneck Riviera” spanning the area from Mobile, Alabama, to the Emerald Coast near Apalachicola, Florida? Though we live in the desert, that doesn’t mean our state is running... More >>
"Sarah Kriehn: Encounters" Practical Art Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 1 until Sun., August 31 Central Phoenix
They say that those who can’t do, teach. Local artist Sarah Kriehn couldn’t disagree more. She taught elementary art for over 20 years, then retired and started a solo printmaking career. According to Kriehn, it’s not that teachers aren’t talented. The problem is that they... More >>

Central Phoenix
According to legend, the Diné (Navajo) underworld was a supercool place to live for the Holy People. The weather was perfect, food grew in loads, and the staples of Navajo art – such as rug weaving, silversmithing, and basketry – were cultivated and honed. In his... More >>
"Up From the Ashes: Phoenix Goes to Mars" Arizona Capitol Museum Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday Central Phoenix
Let's not pull punches. Phoenicians detest Tucsonans, their Birkenstock flip-flops and patchouli cologne, their laissez-faire approach to life, their liberal voting habits. (On the other hand, we've got Sheriff Joe and the idiots who keep electing him, so maybe they’re on to something.)... More >>
