  Not too many bands would post a flier for a show where they're not even named, but I thought there was something telling about Third and Maryland's decision to do so here, where they're, presumably, referred to as "LIVE BAND !"Third and Maryland, a four-piece gener-ock band from Phoenix/Scottsdale/Buckeye/Cave Creek (yes: four band members, four cities) might as well be "LIVE BAND !" for all the distinctiveness demonstrated on the self-titled EP that's the subject of this week's You Asked For It

• Ten Sushi in Cave Creek Closing This Weekend

  How often do you hear about sushi restaurants closing down? A lot less often than you hear of them opening up, I'd say. So here's one of the rarities. Ten Sushi and Asian Fusion, a sleek spot in Cave Creek, is closing this weekend. Sunday is its last day in business. That part of town isn't crammed with sushi joints, either, so locals might be feeling deprived of nigiri pretty soon . . .
