 No, we're not talking Dean Martin and meatballs.

| James McMurtry, & The Dedringers Last Exit Bar & Grill | Sat., July 19, 9:00pm | Tempe | |
 Like his dad Larry, singer-songwriter James McMurtry knows characters. But unlike his novelist father -- who penned The Last Picture Show and Lonesome Dove, and wrote Brokeback Mountain’s screenplay -- the guys and gals who populate James’ work don’t even bother looking for a way... More >> |

| NunZilla, Malakai, Do It To It, The Slave Seven, & MC Calzone's '80s dance party The Willow House | Sat., July 19, 9:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 It’s been a while since we devoted ink/digital pixels to NunZilla, the punk-rock darlings of New Times cover-story fame (“Bad Habits,” April 5, 2007, Niki D’Andrea) and the group that infamously pulled one of the most-documented punk-rock charades this town has even seen... More >> |

| Phoenix Card Show North Phoenix Baptist Church | Sat., July 19, 10:00am-4:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 The baseball-card-collector subculture is a far cry from that of a generation ago. Two decades back, folks could purchase packs of Topps and Fleer with pocket change. Today, one pack of cards, costing more than a gallon of gas, includes half the quantity, zero stats, and no stinking gum.
One... More >> |

| Rock-A-Bella Tio Leo's Mexican Grill and Cantina | Sat., July 19, 3:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 If your last get-together had all of the fun of a Tupperware party and the thrills of a snail race, you should look to the good folks of AZ Rockabilly for inspiration.
The group’s Rock-A-Bella, a hepcat-and-kitten mélange of all things smooth and slick, hot-rods its way into your... More >> |

| Night Golf Encanto Golf Course | Sat., July 19, 7:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 Whacking little white balls around delicately manicured lawns has long been a staple of outdoor activity around town. However, there’s always been one teensy-weensy problem with the whole setup, and it’s spelled s-u-m-m-e-r. There’s nothing quite like dripping sweat so profusely... More >> |

| The House Aquatic feat. DJs Sol Martinez, Senbad, Rani "g," & more Hotel San Carlos | Every week Saturday, 1:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 Say "pool party" to any woman and you'll notice a slight quickening of the pulse as her underarms begin to moisten. Ever since middle school, when pool parties suddenly turned from games of Marco Polo to contests of puberty's progress, those words enter into a woman's neurotic mind and get... 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 >> |

| Bug Live Theatre Workshop |
Sat., July 19, 10:30pm more dates/times |
Outside the Valley | |
 A couple years back, this "bloody-disgusting love story" from playwright Tracy Letts was made into a feature film directed by William Friedkin and starring Ashley Judd and Harry Connick Jr. It was a squirmer -- pretty tough for even hardened gore-hounds to sit through. So will this live version... 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 | |
 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 >> |

| Conspire’s Handmade Art Market Conspire | Third Saturday of every month, 11:00am-3:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 Think of all those scientists who wear tube socks, own the complete Babylon 5 series on DVD, and scream out the Pythagorean theorem when they bust their load. We’re afraid that if they don’t find some creative outlet, they’re doomed for some wicked shit. Don’t believe us?... More >> |

 Much of what once made it bustling and lovely to look at is gone, but the shadow of downtown Phoenix casts a long memory. It’s a dark shadow filled with pretty sites: The San Carlos Hotel on Central Avenue, with its street-front portico and its swoopy neon sign; the Henry Nace-designed... More >> |

| "Framed by Appearance: New Prints by Kathryn Maxwell" Mesa Contemporary Arts | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., April 25 until Sun., August 3 | Mesa | |
 After a night of ego-tronic drinking, you wake up in a foreign bed, locking eyes with an unfamiliar woman.

| “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 >> |

| Marcus Payzant Shemer Art Center & Museum |
Every week Saturday from Sat., July 12 until Wed., August 6, 10:00am-1:00pm more dates/times |
East Phoenix | |
 We’re all for hybrid cars and green cleaners, but if we have to look at one more painting exploring the dangers of deforestation, we’re gonna blow chunks. What’s next -- artists go PETA on our asses, hurling red tree sap at anyone not using recycled paper?
At first glance,... More >> |

| Mark Mothersbaugh’s “Beautiful Mutants” Perihelion Arts |
Sat., July 19, 1:30pm-7:00pm more dates/times |
Central Phoenix | |
 Mark Mothersbaugh lives a symmetrical life of wild extremes.
Consider:
• He’s was born and still lives in Akron, Ohio – all-American birthplace of the rubber tire, Alcoholics Anonymous, and the soap-box derby – but made his name as frontman for the band Devo, which... 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 >> |

| Neil Gillingham's "Henry" five15 Gallery |
Every week Friday from Fri., July 4 until Fri., July 25, 5:00pm-9:00pm more dates/times |
Central Phoenix | |
 When you’re 6 years old and have an imaginary friend, you get a roll of the eyes and a pat on the head. If you’re 30, you get a rubber room and a dose of anti-psychotics.
Luckily for Neil Gillingham, artists get a free pass when it comes to having pretend pals at any age. After... More >> |
