Three bailaores, a cantaor, and a guitarist perform live flamenco in one of the few dedicated tablao formats in the Southwest, with Carlos Menchaca, Andrea Lozano, and Isabella Nuanez dancing...
WWE's summer touring show comes to The Pit, the sunken concrete bowl that has hosted everything from Lobos basketball to arena rock and holds around 15,000 people depending on the setup. The sightlines from the upper bowl are genuinely good here, better than most arenas its age, but floor seats sell fast and the Ticketmaster...
Jordan Jonas, the survivalist who won Season 6 of Alone, brings his particular brand of backcountry credibility to a paranormal-themed evening at Painted Lady's ongoing Brews & Boos series. The bed-and-brew format means the crowd tends to be genuinely curious rather than just bar-traffic, which makes for better Q&A energy than you might expect. Tickets...
Snooper is a Nashville punk band with a reputation for high-speed, high-absurdity sets that hit harder than the recorded versions. Sister Bar's room is small enough that there's no bad spot, which matters when a band plays at this tempo. Tickets are listed on Eventbrite, but this is the kind of show that has walked...
Melvins have been making heavy music uncomfortable in the best possible way since 1983, and a room the size of Launchpad is exactly where that low-end punishment lands hardest. The ceiling is low, the PA is loud, and there is no polite distance between you and the stage. Grab tickets through Hold My Ticket before...
The World Cup Semifinal on the theater's original big screen, plus every angle covered across the 15-screen Sports Lounge inside one of Central Avenue's most recognizable buildings. Reserved tables are...
Cory Hanson is the frontman of Wand, the Los Angeles psych-rock outfit, but his solo work runs quieter and stranger, closer to late-night folk with a disquieting undertow. Sister Bar is a good room for this, small enough that his vocal control actually lands rather than getting swallowed. The show starts late, so plan accordingly.
The BioPark opens its botanic garden after hours for an adults-only evening walk, roughly 90 minutes of grounds access without the daytime family crowd. Mid-July means the sun is still up at 7:30 PM and the garden is at peak summer bloom, so the light and the color are both working in your favor. Tickets...
Monks from Drepung Loseling Monastery, one of the great Gelugpa institutions of Tibetan Buddhism, lead a Menla Choga Puja, a ritual healing ceremony dedicated to the Medicine Buddha. Chatter's room is small enough that the overtone chanting registers in your chest, not just your ears, which changes the experience considerably. This is sacred practice first,...
Three local acts share the Launchpad stage in a stacked Tuesday-night bill anchored by Piñata Protest, the Albuquerque band that has built a serious regional following on cumbia-punk that hits harder live than on record. Launchpad keeps the stage close to the floor and the sound aimed right at you, so even if the room...
