George Clinton's saxophone backbone. But since the Godfather
of Soul's personal troubles, Parker has more than pulled
his own weight at his solo shows. His sets are described
as "all-the-way live, three-hour-plus marathon performances"
where it is "absolutely impossible to sit still." So put
on your boogie shoes and make with that funky stuff at
the McDonald Theatre. See Tuesday Calendar.
Picture
this utopia: a warm bookstore, the musty smell of
paperback stacks, rain outside, you inside, caffé
latté in hand — maybe a solo guitarist
over here, a spot of booksigning over there …
just perfect, you think to yourself. Well then, go
to Books Without Borders at noon on Sunday and experience
the paradise of Books, Authors, Music and Coffee.
Craig Einhorn provides classical guitar, Bob Welch,
Jan Eliot and cookbook author Maryana Vollstedt sign
books and Theo's Coffeehouse serves up some delicious
warm drinks. A portion of the sales during the event
will go to the PEO, an organization providing scholarships
to women. See Sunday Calendar.
A
guest conductor, a guest artist and a bunch of really
fun music! You might not know Mischa "Hott Young Conductor"
Santora or Shai "Hott Young Piano Player" Wosner (pictured
above), but you know this music already, even if you
don't know you know it. First of all, remember Lennie?
Yep, the Eugene Symphony is playing music from
West Side Story. Then there are Samuel Barber's
overture to The School of Music and the ever-popular
Grieg's Suite No. 1 from Peer Gynt. We're serious:
You really, really know "Morning" and "The Hall of
the Mountain King" from Suite. No. 1, especially if
you ever watched Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny
or even Animaniacs. For those of you who want
something a little more, well, serious, the concert
includes Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21 (KV 467),
still light enough for a pre-Thanksgiving concert
but, you know, older. It's going to be fun,
and remember, the guests are Hott. See Thursday, Nov.
16 Calendar. 
Playing
at the WOW Hall tonight, the Jason Webley
Quartet … wait, the Jason Webley
what?! See Thursday, Nov. 16 Calendar.
