Tipitina's Uptown
 |
Tipitina's is hosting an 80th birthday celebration for Fats Domino with a little help from his piano-playing friends:
Randy Newman and Dr. John are co-headlining the show. Domino is expected to make a "special appearance," which means he might, if the spirit moves him, take a turn at the piano for a song or two. Or maybe he'll just wave.
Tickets are $75, available at www.tipitinas.com. Proceeds
benefit the nonprofit Tipitina's Foundation.

Alternative Media EXPO
The Alternative Media Expo is in its sixth installment and features over 85 exhibitors with 'zines, comics, photography, t-shirts, web design, films, blogs and other media.
What is the Expo? It's an event that's much like a trade show and set up like a comic convention--exhibitors show everything from 'zines and comics to handmade clothing, jewelry and crafts to photography, paintings, t-shirts and films.
If you're a fan of alternative media, you'll love the Expo--where else can you find all these things under one roof?
