Snow-what? The Weekend Ahead... Thanks to CinAd
Every week, Cincinnati Advance kicks out "The Wire", a look at the up coming week in culture, politics, and frankly... drinking. It's a great look and nobody does it in a more organized fashion.
In short, if you don't know what's going on in Cincy, you aren't hip to Cincinnati Advance.
This week's gives a run down of the Music Scene and the always entertaining "10 Minutes in Cincy"...
Saturday Night Music:
alchemize: DIG IT
Northside Tavern: Lovely Crash
Comet: Vanishing Kids, Self-evident
Copper's on Main: Your guess is as good as mine.
Viper Room: Greasmas, Buck Stevens and the Buckshots, Rumble Club, Lube Oil & Filter
Mad Hatter: Screaming Kings, American Hardcore
Mad Frog: Jupiter Sunrise, Star Killers
Southgate House: Alone At 3am, Rescue effort, Norust, Hideaway, Krinj, the Horlah, Ellison, Fizzgig, Towhee, Michael Weatherford, Ben Smith, A Present Day Nightmare, Mara, Dead in the Wake
Sunday December 11th:Cat Chow. DonÂt miss this contemporary exhibition showcasing the work of rising star Cat (Catherine) Chow. Addressing issues relating to the culturally assigned roles of women and their clothing, Chow uses highly unusual methods and materials. Meticulously fabricated, her fascinating wearable pieces straddle the line between art and fashion. At the Cincinnati Art Museum, Eden Park.
10 Min in Cincy 8:32-8:42, McFadden's
There's a general vibe of guarded caution that washes over when drink specials are offered. The more generous the drink special, the more caution is needed.
Cases in point, anytime you get drink tickets for small amounts of money. You know what I'm talking about. Those drink specials where you get a tickets for ten bucks or less. Watch your back. I once heard a story where my college roommate knew this guy whose cousin knew this guy whose college roommate ended up in a bathtub with a kidney missing because he went to one such event. It was an event where beers cost only a ticket- and 30 tickets only cost five bucks.
Well, we found ourselves at such a twisted event. A local online magazine hosted an event at the downtown hotspot of the year. I put my hand over my kidney as we approached the venue. The plan was to get San in for the discounted price (not drinking) and I'd pay full price. Then we'd split the bounty of 10 beers.
Otherwise, it would fall on San to guard my kidneys.
The problem fell on trying to get San a cup. I went to the event honcho and began to schmooze. But my schmooze fell on selling my covert celebrity skills. Was I looking for an extra cup, or an extra job?
The powers that be were citing codes and local laws. But I was free to e-mail them about extra jobs.
With my kidneys in peril, we hijacked an extra glass. Secretly diverting potent potables, I snickered at unseen lurkers who were most likelystaring at my mid-section longingly. (DM)
