Meanwhile….
The Rolling Stones in Austin? Yup. That’s what was announced today — the aging rockers are headed to Zilker Park Oct. 22. I’ve already seen the Stones years ago, so I’ll pass on shelling out the big bucks to join an estimated 50,000 concertgoers. Personally, I think Mick, Keith et al, should have hung up the satisfaction years ago. They’re almost a novelty act now.
Meanwhile, also coming this fall… Pro-Arts Collective announces Austin’s first ever Black Arts Movement! Performing Arts Festival September 25- October 8. BAM! — as it is known — will showcase national and regional dance, theater, spoken word, music and visual arts, including the venerable Robert Moses’ Kin Dance Company. Moses has made a name for himself as a dancemaker willing to tackle tough issues like race, class, culture and gender through compelling modern movement. Moses and company are a must-see.
Check out the QuickTime video of the company here.
