This Week's Calendar | Galleries | Music @ the Clubs

visual art: Hey hey hey! They say he doesn't resort to low-brow humor. They say his work often centers on the very cornerstone of our existence, seeking to provide an insight into our roles as family members. They say he's one of the most influential stars in America today. They say he's Bill Cosby, playing two shows at the Hult. What'sa dat'sa fabba' Albert? I'm gonna' sing a song to you-oo. See Friday Calendar.


music: Back in February Lucinda Williams scored a Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance with her song "Get Right With God." Her new album Essence relies not only on her trademark narrative style, but also brings with it a higher reliance on the music. She plays at the McDonald. See Monday Calendar.

music: The gold-trimmed Silva Hall at the Hult features the Eugene Symphony in a night with New York violinist Kurt Nikkanen. The Program opens with Dances of Galanta and continues with Symphonie Espagnole, a warm and expansive love song to the Spanish Culture. See Thursday, April 11 Calendar.
