July Musts

What to do, who to do, and where to do it- in July.

Movies:

The Dark Knight
July 18th

With Oscar buzz for the late Ledger building by day (that will be a later discussion) I have just gotta go, though I may tear up. That's basically the only reason I want to see it, cause I had little interest in the 1st one. (But I can't wait to see how much money it brings in at the box office!)

Mamma Mia!
July 18th

Two words- Broadway adaption; I just cannot resist. And it happened to turn into box office gold for Hairspray last summer, but the release date being the same as TDK will hurt it.

Music:

Modern Guilt
Beck
July 8th

I'm really looking forward to the "loser's" highly-anticipated new album. And judging from his teasers, I'm very excited.

Life, Death, Love, and Freedom
John Mellencamp
July 15th

Mr. Cougar, one of my favorite singers of all time, is back and getting 4 star reviews from Rolling Stone! For those who don't know- he was just inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

June Musts

What to do, who to do, and where to do it- in June.

Movies:

The Happening
June 13th

Though reviews claim it to be "terrifying...ly awful" I think I'll see this one just to stare at Mark
Walberg for 2 hours.

Wanted
June 27th
To be blunt again. 2 hours of staring at the gorgeous James McAvoy. Plus the even-more-gorgeous Angie Jolie.

Music:
Viva la Vida
Coldplay
June 17th

I'm officially ecstatic. After listening to their single "Violet Hill" for days on end I really cannot stand the wait.

Flavors of Entanglement
Alanis Morissette
June 10th

I'm really into her lately. Judging from the buzz, I'm excited for another album of angst ridden lyrics and melodies.

Venues:

Rooney
Jack Rabbits
June 24th

One of my fave bands is coming to our teeny neck of the country? I'm in.
