I was out of town for the week--which means you can expect an upcoming column to focus on books and CDs.

In the meantime, I'm counting on you to fill me in. What arts and entertainment encounters did you have this weekend? Tell me what I missed in Indy.

Your thoughts?

    Cara Jean Wahlers and Grover Parido's CD release party at the Indianapolis Art Center Saturday night was lovely. Beautiful music, beautiful night, beautiful setting. Wish there were more events there!

  • Matinee with The Kids

    Saw (and really enjoyed) The Kids Are All Right. Painful and extremely uncomfortable to watch in places, with really great comedic counterpoints. Watching Annette Bening parent her teens was like seeing a very unattractive reflection in the mirror. Oy. Straight. Gay. Single. Coupled. Being a mom is hard work.

    Saw the Sorcererâ??s Apprentice with Nicholas Cage. It was very good. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did and was greatly amused at the inclusion of the "cleaning up with mops" scene re-enacted from the animated Mickey Mouse version. Such fun!

  1. If a television station wants to improve viewership, get rid of the local blackout. I was born by the brickyard, and have attended 15 or more races. I have children now, I won't attend unless circumstances are perfect. As those with growing families know, they never are. I'm always impressed that upwards of 250,000 people attend the 500. However, as a growing, or, more apt, sprawling city, Indianapolis and its immediate suburbs count almost 2.2 million. Show the race live, let the venue get a kick-back on revenues, and open-wheel racing might have a fighting chance to be relevant again. Just in time for those tax-payer lights to make sense.

  2. John Moore, I too have had the same issue recently. A property next to my house was on the Land Bank and I was interested in purchasing. When I tried to contact Reggie, I got back emails that had nothing to do with what I asked about. Actually my latest response from him was on this past Friday. I had asked about how to buy the property and if it was still available. His response to me was to contact the mayor's office to get the schedule of his appearances. (???) Hopefully the city is able to do something to fix what this guy has done, it would be nice if they would take the properties back and sell them properly so land owners like me and you mother would have a fair chance.

  3. I too work in the industry, with over 25 years of experience and your political spin has probably nothing to do with any rebranding. "Let's dress it up" would have nothing to do with the government "telling us how and what to eat." Give it a political rest. And being a producer for a radio show doesn't mean you've been involved in advertising and branding for 30 years.

  4. Ms. Morris did not understand the ways of the business world, otherwise, like the IMS, she could have petitioned the State Legislature for a handout of State Funds for her charity work. Ms. Morris should consider becoming a state lobbyist for Lemonade Stand Operators.

  5. David Copperfield!
