DALLAS / FT WORTH / N TEXAS LIVE MUSIC CALENDAR FOR 11/20/13 THRU 11/27/13

     This Friday, in case you have been hiding up under a rock, marks the 50th Anniversary of the assassination of President John F Kennedy in Dallas. Every time I see the Zapruder film (and right now, it seems like I see it every time I turn on the TV or log online) I can't help but think not only was he our President, but he was a father, a husband, a brother, a son and an uncle. And yes, I weep. 
     
     Dallas carried the "City of Hate" label for a very long time. I was born in Dallas in 1963, not quite a month after the tragedy. My Mom tells me at the time, people were still openly grieving where ever you went. Doesn't sound like a city of hate to me. But the label was hard to shake.

     The Dallas Cowboys and the TV show "Dallas" helped change that, but isn't that pathetic: a commercial football team and a television soap opera are what it took. I know better that this is not all we are about.
     
    The worlds media has descended upon us at this time of remembrance. Afterwards, what will the world write about us? What will we show them about Dallas now, Dallas 2013? Wouldn't it be a wonderful thing if Dallas came to be known for tolerance, art and acceptance? It's our Dallas now. What will we make of it?


"My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country" - John F Kennedy.

They've got a cool thing going on, so when you go, make sure you show some love and spend some money to help keep them going!  The world needs more independent movie houses!!!! (Did you know I used to work at The Granada Theatre on lower Greenville back in the '80's when it was an art house movie theater? And that my maternal grandfather was the top union movie projectionist in Texas up until they made him retire in his 70's? My love of historic movie houses just might be connected.)

In addition to the regular concessions (popcorn, candy, cold drinks, etc.) they also have a full bar in the lobby, that's an Oak Cliff destination in itself. You can take you drink in with you to watch the movie. This isn't the only event for them - they regularly host fun, hip happenings. Check them out at www.thetexastheatre.com
