| Arizona Fall League Opening Day Various | Tue., October 7 | Central Phoenix | |
 Somewhere or other, it’s written that to everything there is a season. But there are people who just can’t accept this -- people who enjoy listening to Bing Crosby sing “Silver Bells” in February, people who crave pumpkin pie in June. If you’re a baseball fan of this... More >> |

| Nick Lowe Rhythm Room | Tue., October 7, 8:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 Recognized for producing of some of the greatest records of the punk era (Elvis Costello, The Damned, the Pretenders), it’s his own records where Nick Lowe left the most indelible mark. Witness Yep-Roc’s recent 30-year anniversary edition of Pure Pop for Now People. In 1978, dressing... More >> |

| Phoenix Suns vs. Atlanta Hawks (Preseason) U.S. Airways Center | Wed., October 8, 7:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 We can’t blame Valley sports fans for throwing a conniption fit these days, considering that the D-Backs screwed the pooch, the Mercury dipped far south, and the Sun Devil football team seems to be stumbling. Now your Phoenix Suns are officially back in business, with the 2008-09 preseason... More >> |

| La Calaca Cabaret Herberger Theater Center | Thu., October 9, 7:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 What’s bilingual and is surrounded by four plays, one musical, mariachi performances, art exhibits, a book signing with local glitter queen Kathy Cano-Murillo, and can be enjoyed while eating enchiladas? How about the Cultural Coalition’s La Calaca Cabaret, which will present a... More >> |

| Margot & the Nuclear So and So’s Rhythm Room | Thu., October 9, 8:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 An aging hipster and a 16-year-old girl stroll through the mall, each absentmindedly enveloped in their respective iPods. They collide. "Hey, watch where you're going," says the hipster, "you got pop sensibilities in my drone-y shoegaze." The 16-year-old girl cocks her head: "Nuh-uh. You got... More >> |

| Jon Sands Phoenix Art Museum | Tue., October 14, 6:30pm | Central Phoenix | |
 The odes to self-love in pop culture are legion, ranging from Cyndi Lauper's pouty-voiced paean "She Bop" to the Divinyls' slinky "I Touch Myself." NYC poet Jon Sands' "Being Human Being" starts with self-inflicted lust, but swiftly traces its way to playfully affirming his love for humanity's,... More >> |

| The Producers Phoenix Theatre |
Tue., October 7, 7:30pm more dates/times |
Central Phoenix | |
 There's a reason Mel Brooks’ The Producers has been a movie and a musical and a movie musical: “You can't see it all the first time you see it. You can't hear it all,” says Michael Barnard, producing artistic director at Phoenix Theatre. “I must have seen the original movie... More >> |

| Kidnapped by Craigslist Soul Invictus Gallery & Cabaret | Every week Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., October 3 until Sat., October 18 | Central Phoenix | |
 A girl needs a sofa. A guy wants to gripe about his bitchy boss. Another fellow wants to rent an apartment with a stranger who likes teacup poodles and sleeps during the day. Will these people meet? If so, will they fall in love? Or will they just end up wasting time chatting on the Internet... 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 >> |

| Arizona Exposition & State Fair Arizona State Fairgrounds | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., October 10 until Sun., November 2 | Central Phoenix | |
 Way back in 1884, a small band of heat-addled Phoenicians put their hardscrabble noggins together and thunk up the Arizona Territorial Fair, which was essentially a reason to bust out of their stifling shotgun shacks after a season on the brink of madness. The diversions they installed at the... More >> |

| "La Casa Murillo: A Life-Size Shadowbox" Heard Museum | Daily from Fri., October 3 until Sun., January 11 | Central Phoenix | |
 AZ ain't Connecticut, so our lifestyle gurus are the anti-Martha. Namely, Patrick Murillo and Kathy Cano-Murillo, the latter of whom, Crafty Chica, has already been zazzing us up with her newspaper column, cruises, events, and new line of supplies. "La Casa Murillo: A Life-Size Shadow Box,"... More >> |

| Reggae Sundays PHX Nightclub | Every week Sunday, 9:00pm-2:00am | Central Phoenix | |
 For many of you, the last time you heard reggae was when you toked up some shitty pot in your first Tempe apartment as an undergrad. You and your buddies wasted the afternoon away while wearing ASU T-shirts and Umbros, eating Gus’ pizza, and listening to your sweet three-disc CD changer... More >> |

| 1960s Drinks at 1960s Prices feat. DJ Juke Joint Jimmy Chez Nous | Every week Monday, 7:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 Somewhere between Middle Ages Germany and now, we managed to transform a simple word for flying through the air on a rope (swanken) into a bebop-and-scat subculture whose adherents strut around mouthing hepcat jive and snapping their fingers a lot. But hey, it’s cool. It’s swank, baby... More >> |

| Food Club The Firehouse | Every week Tuesday, 8:00pm | Central Phoenix | |
 Normally, when we hit up a potluck, we’re rudely greeted with the same tired-ass cuisine. Processed crap. Stale bread. Tubs of mayo topped with hues of yellow mustard and green relish goo. Every. Single. Time.
You’ll see none of this during The Firehouse’s weekly Food Club vegan... More >> |

| Mics @ the Market Downtown Phoenix Public Market | First Wednesday of every month | Central Phoenix | |
 The Downtown Phoenix Public Market has made shoppers think locally about their produce and proved there are bargains beyond clipped coupons and grocery-store discount cards.

| "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 >> |

| Copper Star Coffee’s Poetry Series Copper Star Coffee | Third Wednesday of every month | Central Phoenix | |
 Our assignment, which we chose to accept, was to sling ink about Copper Star Coffee’s Poetry Series setup on the third Wednesday of every month. We hoped the tattooed stud pouring our mud would spill the beans about the upcoming assonance-shaking and alliteration-popping, but —... 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 >> |

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 >> |
