Ska Shock feat. 2 Week Notice, Soulafide, La Banda Skalavera, & DJ Miss Upsetter The Clubhouse Music Venue Thu., July 3, 7:00pm Tempe
It may come as a shock, but Arizona has something of a vibrant ska scene. Granted, it’s not as expansive or off-the-chain as our state’s hip-hop or rock communities, but we can think of almost a dozen different ska bands that have been unleashing Rude Boy and 2-Tone beats around AZ in... More >>
The Source 20th Anniversary Party Myst Thu., July 3, 9:00pm Central Scottsdale
We pull up to the tony Myst nightclub rocking our high wedge heels and black miniskirt, cruise the second-floor VIP area where the friendly bartenders shower us with whiskey and compliments, and decide we’ll bring our sassy selves back for Source Magazine's 20th Party. The blowout’s... More >>

Central Scottsdale
Modern celebs are always milking the goodwill angle, whether they’re adopting African babies, playing charity concerts for tsunami relief, or making documentary videos about Darfur. But it wasn’t always about good press. In the late ’60s, WWII hero and International Rescue... 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 >>
Reefer Madness Phoenix Theatre's Little Theatre Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., June 7 until Sat., July 5, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
Pssst. Yeah, you. Wanna buy some Reefer Madness? No, the musical, you hophead! Why has Nearly Naked Theatre has chosen to present the Arizona première of this gaudy whirlwind of sex, drugs, and lounge music, based on the idiotic/cautionary 1936 movie of the same name? Says the... 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 >>
AZ Dodgeball Arizona Army National Guard Armory Every week Tuesday, Thursday from Thu., June 26 until Tue., September 2, 6:30pm East Phoenix
I solemnly swear not to mention Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story during the writing of this piece. Starting . . . now. When describing an adult-dodgeball affair, it’s de rigueur to reference the 2004 flick. I mean, come on. But if AZ Dodgeball founder Sam Pewitt wants to play coy (the... 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 >>
"Chado Ralph Rucci" Phoenix Art Museum Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., March 21 until Sun., August 17 Central Phoenix
High fashion in the Phoenix area is still associated with statements like, "Why, yes, I did get this at Macy's." In this town, you're more likely to be judged by the overall hue and breadth of your tan than for your taste in Balenciaga footwear. This may change some when Barney's opens in... More >>

After a night of ego-tronic drinking, you wake up in a foreign bed, locking eyes with an unfamiliar woman. The beauty you followed home yesterday night was real cream, but this basement doppelgänger arouses nothing but your gag reflexes. Nevertheless, you suppress the urge to shit-n-bail... More >>
"Gardians of the Camargue: The French Buckaroo Tradition" Burton Barr Central Library Daily from Fri., May 9 until Thu., July 31 Central Phoenix
Think “cowboy” and y’all will most likely imagine vast expanses of the old American West. But as long ago as the first nomads got footsore and became farmers, human, horse, and bull forged a triumvirate that emerged around the world. For example, the Camargue region of France is... 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 >>
"Mass Consumption" Mesa Contemporary Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., June 13 until Sun., August 10 Mesa
What’s one of our favorite things about Mesa Contemporary Arts besides the kickass exhibits? The gallery's sheer size, which makes it the perfect fit for "Mass Consumption," a show that associate curator Tiffany Fairall describes (in a ginormous nutshell) as "everything about popular... More >>
"Masters of Illusion: Unveiling the Mystery of Trompe l'Oeil" Tempe Center for the Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., May 3 until Sat., August 2 Tempe
The greatest fakers in the art world aren’t forgers, wanna-bes, or even drones churning out 20 Mona Lisas a day for oil-painting stores. They’re practitioners of trompe l’oeil. French for “fool the eye,” the art style was first used in ancient Greece, where landscape... 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 >>
Summer Flashlight Tour Desert Botanical Garden Every week Thursday, Saturday from Thu., May 1 until Sat., August 30, 7:00pm-9:00pm East Phoenix
Bust out your capes and fangs. It’s vampire time, baby. No, we’re not talking about Halloween or some teenage goth event. We're speaking of the transformation every Phoenician goes through during the summer months. We avoid the sun, socialize in the evening hours, and sleep during the... 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 >>
