April is Mathematics Awareness Month.  (I swear.  I Googled it).  Yet somehow amid the wild partying and celebratory flash card tournaments, mathematicians have graciously allotted the rest of us a day for which to acknowledge that other scientific phenomenon: Planet Earth.  Thus, we have Earth Day. 

While the actual day itself has come and gone, Earth Day festivities are ongoing.  The Tahoe Truckee Earth Day Festival kicks off tomorrow night with the Patagonia Wild and Scenic Film ...

Tonic is throwing a fundraiser tonight for itself, a trend I started way back in elementary school when I tried to sell a bunch of my brother's toys without him knowing out of our gargage.  But we can talk about that some other time.  Basically, Tonic needs some new sound equipment, so they've recruited some of the best (and best looking) DJs to come in ...

Next to Christmas, my birthday, the eight days of Hanukkah, the first day of summer and Free Scoop Night at Baskin Robbins, I can't think of another day I look forward to more than the third Saturday of each month, known to many as Wine Walk Day.

The Truckee River Wine Walk is an event organized by the Reno ...

This one's a quickie, which sometimes, is just what the doctor ordered.

Tonight: At the Green Room, Sly Buford is going to take the stage along with CazRoc sometime around 10ish.  We all know shows never start when they're supposed to; just be there sometime after the sun sets but before your mom calls to ask what channel CSI is on again.  (Oh, like that never happens ...

     Working in a downtown Reno casino, I meet people everyday who've traveled many miles to celebrate that special something under the bright lights of the Biggest Little City.  Be it a wedding anniversary, a 21st birthday, a bachelor party or finally making parole (kidding!), Reno seems to be where it's at for celebrating on a budget.  Let me make this a little easier.

The big 2-1: Okay we get it.  You're ...

One of my favorite things, and sometimes least favorite things, about Reno is that everyone knows everyone.  It can come in handy when you need a cheap drink, want to get into a club within the hour, don't want to pay $60 to ski or need some other sort of hook-up.  If you don't know the bartender, chances are one of your friends does.  I recently went to a bar ...

     It's Monday, the work week has begun, school is back in session, and if you're like me, you need a break already.  Lucky for all of us, there's a really good band playing at a really cool bar where really neat people such as myself will be drinking really yummy drinks. Really. 

     Kleveland, a band from of Portland, ...

     Now that St. Patty's Day is only a memory (or maybe more of a blur, depending on how Irish you were feeling) it may be time to give the old liver a rest and exercise another body part, like the brain perhaps.  

     The Nevada Museum of Art is currently showing one of the more exciting art collections Reno has ...

Mike Alger tells me it's supposed to be not-so-gloomy out this weekend, and when Mike tells me something, I listen.  Therefore, I'm hitting the streets and taking advantage of the good weather, and you all should too.  Here's what's happening in Reno this weekend:

Warsaw Poland Bros. are playing at the Green Room Friday at 9 ...

That's right its the annual North Lake Tahoe Snow Festival! Take a break from the buffets, or grab some of that money you won on the craps table and head up to North Lake Tahoe.

The festival is a 10 day celebration of fun, families and snow! It was started in 1981 with the goal of helping promote Tahoe's incredible weather and skiing, support and increase local tourism, and showcase the magnificent Lake Tahoe area.

So come ...
