I wrote a story on Friday about the Sour Grapes crew, a graffiti-oriented art collective out of Oak Cliff. They had a big art show scheduled for Saturday -- but at the last minute (Friday night), the gallery scheduled to host the show lost electricity. A contractor could not make it out in time to fix the problem.
The quick-thinking Sour Grapes guys kept their Saturday date and time, but moved the show to Omega's Mexican restaurant a few blocks away. The report, from Miguel Donjuan, who's the guy crouching down in the photo above:
There was a headcount of 120 by 7:45! People were enjoying art, eating, buying shirts, jamming to some classic Salsa. It was a huge success!
VAN HALEN DALLAS, CINCINNATI, RALEIGH, & BALTIMORE CONCERTS POSTPONED
The Van Halen concerts in Dallas, Cincinnati, Raleigh, and Baltimore have been postponed. According to Eddie Van Halen's physician, he is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests to determine a defined diagnosis and recommended medical procedures.
Got an email last Friday from a reader asking me where she should take a group of out-of-town single girlfriends who wanted to go dancing. All of them were in their 40's.
Usually I write about places that attract the 21-35 year-old set, but I thought this might be helpful for one of you out there. Here's what I told her. Let me know if you think I missed anything, or if you think my picks are totally off-base.
Hanging out at the Nodding Dog cafe this weekend -- their oatmeal is fabulous, by the way -- I saw a flyer with a half-naked guy on the cover, advertising a new club in Addison called Posh Ultra Lounge. Of course I was intrigued. (Anything with Posh in the title and I am so there, especially if it is followed by the word "Becks.") The address identified the place as being next to Carson's Live.
