| Arizona Cardinals vs. Denver Broncos (Preseason) University of Phoenix Stadium | Fri., August 29, 7:00pm | Glendale | |
 Did you hear what those geezers on the Arizona Cardinals preseason broadcast were saying during the Kansas City Chiefs game on August 16? That the redbirds’ win was a monumental turning point, especially considering that it was coach Ken Whisenhunt’s first exhibition victory in six... More >> |

| Coke White Tour Marquee Theatre | Fri., August 29, 6:30pm | Tempe | |
 Drinking. Drugging. Thugging. Odes to these will be legion when Bay Area underground rapper Andre Nickatina brings his subtly named Coke White Tour to Marquee Theatre.
As he has throughout his nearly 20-year recording career -- as well as on his new CD, A Tale of Two Andres -- Nickatina... More >> |

| “Midstream: New Ceramics From the Heartland” ASU Art Museum Ceramics Research Center | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., August 23 until Sat., February 28, 11:00am-5:00pm | Tempe | |
 Ceramicists always wonder why they’re left in the dust while painters and sculptors get the glory. Let’s face it, clay boy, no one’s gonna care about your pot unless they can smoke it. Maybe that’s why Midwestern artists Teri Frame, Alex Hibbitt, and Liz Zacher decided to... 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 >> |

| Dearly Departed Chyro Arts Venue | Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., August 21 until Sat., September 6, 8:00pm | South Scottsdale | |
 Reading the press release for Dearly Departed, a play in the first week of its run at Chyro Arts Venue, comparisons to William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying are inevitable. However, instead of hicks transporting a corpse in a pine-box coffin, the David Bottrell/Jesse Jones comedy follows the... More >> |

| The Rocky Horror Show presented by Nearly Naked Theatre Phoenix Theatre's Little Theatre | Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 15 until Sat., September 13 | Central Phoenix | |
 There’s a lyric from one of the Richard O’Brien tunes in his intergalactically famous The Rocky Horror Show that goes, “It was great when it all began/I was a regular Frankie fan.” It’s a lyric that has proven more true than the then-starving young playwright could have... More >> |

| Arizona Diamondbacks Family Fridays Chase Field |
Fri., August 29 more dates/times |
Central Phoenix | |
 If you’re like us, you loathe and despise the captive-audience price-gouging that goes on at sports arenas. Five or six bucks for a dog? Eight or nine for a brew? Hell, you’ll only shell out $5 for a sixer and another buck for the wiener at the neighborhood Circle K. The whole... More >> |

| Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Chase Field |
Fri., August 29, 6:40pm more dates/times |
Central Phoenix | |
 It seems as if everybody, especially Los Angeles Dodgers fans, is creaming him or herself over the Dodgers’ acquisition of outfielder Manny Ramirez. True, the slugger is leading the team’s charge toward NL West supremacy. But just wait until he ditches his best behavior and the loose... 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 >> |

Mesa | |
 Gigantic, pissed-off chickens with teeth. That’s the impression created by the imposing models on display in the “Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origins of Flight” exhibit. After you check out these dentally impressive fowl, run for your life to Arizona Science Center and marvel at... More >> |

| Frank Caliendo Tempe Improv |
Thu., August 28, 8:00pm more dates/times |
Tempe | |
 Among comedy geeks, Frank Caliendo is a divider like no other. First off, he’s an impressionist, and not since the halcyon days of Rich Little-as-George Burns has the skill been comparatively viable to, say, humorous hypnotism or ventriloquism. Second, his interpretations of Dubya, John... More >> |

| Happy Hour Golf Karsten Golf Course | Every week Wednesday, Friday from Fri., July 11 until Fri., September 19, 2:00pm-6:00pm | Tempe | |
 If you’re a golfer, summer’s either the greatest thing since sliced bread or an involuntary exile from the links. If you’re poor, it’s probably the bread, ’cause you don’t have to spend as much of the doughy stuff to get in your 18. Many of the power resorts... 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 >> |

| Kollectiv Art and Design Group Show Kollectiv Art and Design | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 1 until Sun., August 31 | Central Phoenix | |
 You grew up in a fascist household where creativity wasn’t encouraged. At age 2, when you drew an abstract version of your dog, your parents took note of its asymmetry and shook their heads critically. They couldn’t tolerate anything but pure genius, and if that wasn’t... 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 >> |

| Night Gallery Tempe Marketplace | Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, 6:00pm-9:00pm | Tempe | |
 Commodification of art is nothing new (we especially like those Hello Kitty vibrators), but a respectable art gallery slumming in a mall is right up there with Walmarts on sacred burial grounds, even if it’s exactly the kind of "social embeddedness" that Joe Baker, ASU's Director of... More >> |

| "No Snow on the Broken Bridge: Video Work by Yang Fudong" Phoenix Art Museum | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Tue., July 8 until Sun., September 14 | Central Phoenix | |
 Phoenix Art Museum has always had a thing for Asian art. Its permanent collection of Chinese, Japanese, and Southeast Asian artworks is not only massive, but also well-regarded.

 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 >> |

| Splash Bash Labor Day Weekend 2008 The Clarendon Hotel & Suites | Daily from Fri., August 29 until Mon., September 1 | Central Phoenix | |

| Suavecito Fridays Sonoma Casual Dining | Every week Friday, 8:00pm-2:00am | Avondale | |
 We're what you'd call "white." Our Mexican ex-boyfriend has confirmed this many times, despite our challenges to the contrary. "But look right here," we'd say, "this spot is kind of brown!" He would just laugh and direct his gaze in a more southwesterly direction.
Now we can really compare... 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 >> |
