Happy Post-Valentine's Day!
Yesterday was your chance to make up for all of last year's bone-headed
mistakes by simply purchasing something shiny for your loved one, so you'd
better have taken advantage of it. After all, the DeBeers family can't
be expected to suppress market competition and enslave half of the Third
World all by themselves, now can they?
Sevendust
leads energetic show
Georgia band Sevendust decided
to wait until after the Super Bowl to make its Houston appearance at the
Verizon Wireless Theater on Friday with supporting acts Element Eighty
out of Dallas and the Soulfly-influenced Ill Nino. It didn't make for a
typical romantic date, but for Sevendust loyalists it was the perfect way
to say "Happy Valentines Day."
Banner's
follow-up full of hits and misses
Mosh pits and slam dancing
are no longer strictly associated with rock music. Going to the club and
hearing the latest from the Ying Yang Twins can get you a good workout,
as well as beat up. Deemed by fans as "crunk music," this Southern style
of hip-hop is rapidly becoming the most popular form of rap. The charts
are topped with beats by Lil' John, anthems by The Youngbloodz, and Southern
drawl by T.I. and Bone Crusher.
See the house that Menil never
built
Much like the feeling one gets when something doesn't
go according to plan, the exhibit An Unbuilt House for the Menil
evokes both curiosity and longing for Mexican architect Luis Barragán's
fully realized vision of a house adjacent to The Menil Collection in the
museum district.
