Lafayette Brewing Company Concert Venue
Last night I attended an Oteil concert at the Lafayette Brewing Company in Lafayette, Indiana. I’d been to the LBC for dinner before, but I had never attended a concert there. Boy, was I impressed.
A small room on the second floor of the building, the concert venue …
Virgin Media Bundle (TV, Phone, Broadband services)
I’ve been a customer of Virgin Media at my new address for a year and a half now [and before that of NTL Cable at my old address!]
My original package was good for the time (e.g. not in a recession) and I admit I was rather too lazy to …
Wicked: The Musical
When I first heard of this musical a couple of years ago, I became addicted to the soundtrack, especially with songs like “Defying Gravity” and “No Good Deed”. Little did I know that the musical would completely blow my mind.
As I entered into the theater, the stage was garnished …
Disneyland Paris (Amusement Park in France)

Enclave Nightclub in Chicago
Enclave Nightclub in Chicago has been around for so long, but something about it always looks different every time I go. I do like that it is in a very accessible place downtown and easy to get to. The club itself tries to cater and attract an …
Pursuit of Happyness
This wasn’t Will Smith’s best performance, certainly not compared to the dramatic fireworks of say, Fresh Prince of Belair. That’s unfair. The movie wasn’t terrible, in fact, it wasn’t even bad. The hype before the movie, the promotion, the talk shows, all led you to believe that this might …

Alberta Street Fair in Portland

One of the best shows on TV today in my opinion that is a “have to see” every week is the comedy called “Two and a Half Men” on Monday nights on CBS. I think it has the perfect blend of different types of humor to appeal to …

R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet
R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet has to be one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. It never ceases to amaze what can be accomplished when you let an arrogant, narcissistic egomaniac fulfill his “artistic vision.” Sometimes you get something like Trapped in the Closet.
For the …

Herberger Theater Center
Their web site says: experience the magic and they’re not kidding. A gorgeous theater, the type of place that you feel you should get dressed up for even if you’re simply seeing an afternoon Christmas play.
I have probably been to over fifty performances here in the past …
American Idol - Performance 5/5/09
It was rock week on American Idol, and the four remaining American Idol contestants were ready for it. Adam Lambert started it off with a rockin’ Whole Lot of Love. It was another solid performance. If he doesn’t win the season, it’ll be a real shocker.
