The weather is getting warmer, and this weekend is hotter. This should keep you busy this weekend:
- Fridays After Five: The Charlottesville Funk All Stars open for the Lee Boys performance at 5:30PM . From their website “The Lee Boys are one of America’s finest African-American sacred steel ensembles. This family group consists of three brothers, Alvin Lee (guitar), Derrick Lee and Keith Lee (vocals) along with their three nephews, Roosevelt Collier (pedal steel guitar), Alvin Cordy Jr. (7-string bass) and Earl Walker (drums). Each member began making music at the ages of 7 and 8 in the House of God church they attended in Perrine, FL. Here they underwent a rigorous course of training in a variety of musical instruments, including lap and pedal steel guitars. Born and raised in Miami, each of The Lee Boys grew up in the church where their father and grandfather, Rev. Robert E. Lee, was the pastor and a steel player himself.” They are also playing at the Outback Lodge at 10PM for $10.
- Sex And The City Party: For all of you wannabe New-yorkers still living in cville, you can almost live vicariously through the show’s best music at 216 on Friday night.
- Sex And The City Movie Premiere: This movie is only playing in one theater in all of Cville, Carmike 6 on Garden Blvd. You can watch this all weekend at 1:00, 1:30, 4:00, 7:00, 7:30, 10:00, 10:30. The Girl’s Night Out is organizing a move night for all you women out there.
- Bent Theatre Comedy Group: Performing in Lovingston, VA, at Rapunzel’s Coffee and Books from 8pm-10pm on Friday night.
- String of Pearls: Live Art’s new performance opens tonight at 8PM. Buy tickets here for $12 -$14. Catch the next show on Saturday night at 8PM as well
- Farmer’s Market: Saturday from 7AM-12PM you can catch the freshest produce, meat and poultry this side of the Mason Dixon.
- Crabtree Falls Hike: a moderate hike with 7 people attending so far
- Handgun Shooting: Saturday 2PM at Rivanna Rifle and Pistol Club. This will come in handy when you run for President and claim that you were born with an NRA license in your mouth.

Before I even read this, I just want to thank Vanillavy for actually using a relevant, local picture. You may not have taken it yourself, but at least it is 100% appropriate.
GO SEE THE LEE BOYS- that’s for you Mary. If Robert Randolf’s uncles went on tour they would be these guys.
I must now admit that I asked Shen what breats were just to see this in the recent comment:
Will Soon Conquer the World (59)
* shenanigans: breasts
Watching the new SATC in a Carmike full of gabbing girls who want live in NY makes me wanna puke on myself.
In honor of our missing villainette, I will make her standard Friday comment for her.
Market Street and Crush wine tastings tonight.
“This movie is only playing in one theater in all of Cville”
movies only ever play at one theater in Charlottesville.
In Soviet Charlottesville, movies only ever play at one of you.
Let me second the suggestion to go see the Lee Boys! They’re a riot.
@6 now that’s how you make a soviet russia joke!
at this point i should probably just give up.
