I really doubt anyone reads this blog to find out about upcoming events but just in case, the following concerts/events are my picks for some diversionary fun.
Phantom Sightings: Art after the Chicano Movement, April 6, 2008-September 1, 2008. LACMA
Symposium, April 5, 2008 10am in the Bing Theater.
Forever Flamenco at the Fountain Theater, April 20, 2008 $25
The Fountain Theater debut of one of the best up and coming Flamenco dancers in Los Angeles, Cristina “La Tigresa” Lucio.
Robyn at the Wiltern, Saturday, May 17, 2008 8:00 PM $20
Ooo, I bet she puts on a good live show!
Gnarls Barkley, Youssou N’Dour, Deerhoof at the Hollywood Bowl July 27, 2008, $10-$96
I’d go to see Deehoof not sure about Gnarls Barkley.
Darn! Missed the tribute to Serge Gainsbourg at the Bordello.
The symposium on Saturday would be cool to attend, but alas I’m gonna be too fidgety and nervous about the UCLA game.
I’ll be going to the Gnarles Barkley show at the Hollywood Bowl in July. I also found a few other shows this month to attend. I can’t wait. Now, I need to find that concert buddy.
I went to briefly to the morning session of the symposium and got to check out a bit of the exhibit. I’m hoping to post photos and inarticulate observations later.
If you don’t find a concert buddy for Gnarls Barkley let me know, I really want to see Deerhoof despite the inevitable masses of hipsters who’ll be in attendance. Maybe we can have a bloggers meet up or something? 🙂
