Swing
comes to the Hult's Silva Hall for two evening shows and one
matinee performance, featuring sizzling live dance and music.
A neo-swing band plays hit swing tunes such as "Boogie Woogie
Bugle Boy," "It Don't Mean a Thing," and "Sing, Sing, Sing!",
and dancers kick up their heels. See Friday and Saturday Calendar.
Earth
Day Celebration 2003 features music, exhibits, activities, demonstrations

by Downtown Events Management, Inc. See Saturday Calendar.
Steve
Kimock brings his mastery of instruments and his explorations
of new rhythms, tones and melodies to The Annex, one of Eugene's
newest venues. The Steve Kimock Band features Rodney
Holmes (drums), Mitch Stein (guitar), and Arne Livingston (bass),
re-inventing music through hard work,
imagination and a dedication to the creation of a new musical
vocabulary. See Sunday Calendar.
The
Polyphonic Spree, led by ex-Tripping Daisy frontman Tim DeLaughter
(unfortunately pronounced "delotter") is coming to the WOW Hall.
Picture it — 24 white-robed, smiling vocalists and musicians,
all looking like a cult, all tight as hell, all kicking sonic
ass. Their music is choral pop, meaning the WOW will be filled
with sounds seldom, perhaps never, heard before in these parts.
Spree's moving, loud, emotional, uplifting
music is also going to become a musical. Hear it in Eugene first.
See Tuesday Calendar.
