Go to the moon at Great Lakes Science Center with ‘Apollo 11’ in DOME Theater

Even as commercial spaceflight inches toward becoming slightly more attainable for more people, let’s face facts: You probably are never going to the moon. Yeah, it’s a bummer to hear. I’m sorry to break it to you. However, you may be able to trick yourself into feeling you’re actually pretty close to earth’s natural satellite during a visit at Cleveland’s Great Lakes Science Center.

I … Continue reading Glen Hansard will support soon-to-be-released ‘The Wild Willing’ with Agora show in September

Akron’s own Black Keys returning to The Q, with Modest Mouse in tow

It’s still amazing to me that two guys from Akron, whose band, The Black Keys, offers what is, for the most part, straight-ahead, if highly addictive rock, can headline arenas. I mean, I saw singer-guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney absolutely pack Agora Cleveland years ago for a blistering show, but while the Agora isn’t some tiny club, it isn’t Quicken Loans Arena, either. … Continue reading Akron’s own Black Keys returning to The Q, with Modest Mouse in tow

Slow-but-funny Steven Wright back at Playhouse Square for more stand-up in March

I interviewed Steven Wright a little more than two years ago, not long before the longtime stand-up comic was slated to perform at Cleveland’s Playhouse Square. In case you are unfamiliar with Wright, he talks and (I’m pretty sure, at least) moves pretty slowly. So when I saw recently that he was slated again to perform at Playhouse Square — on March 22, at the … Continue reading Slow-but-funny Steven Wright back at Playhouse Square for more stand-up in March
