SUMMARY:San Diego Comic-Con International
DESCRIPTION:From the beginning\, the founders of the show set out to include not only the comic books they loved\, but also other aspects of the popular arts that they enjoyed and felt deserved wider recognition\, including films and science fiction/fantasy literature. After one more name change (San Diego’s West Coast Comic Convention\, in 1972)\, the show officially became the San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) in 1973 with the fourth annual event. In 1995\, the non–profit event changed its name to Comic-Con International: San Diego (CCI). \nThe show’s main home in the 1970s was the fondly remembered El Cortez Hotel in downtown San Diego. In 1979\, Comic-Con moved to the Convention and Performing Arts Center (CPAC)\, and stayed there until 1991\, when the new San Diego Convention Center opened. Comic-Con has been at home in that facility for over two decades. \n\n\nWith attendance topping 130\,000 in recent years—in a convention center facility that has maxed out in space—the event has grown to include satellite locations\, including local hotels and outdoor parks. Programming events\, games\, anime\, the Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival\, and the Eisner Awards all take place outside of the Convention Center\, creating a campus-type feel for the convention in downtown San Diego. \n\nPhoto by Kevin Green © 2012 SDCC\n\nOver the years\, Comic-Con has become the focal point for the world of comics conventions. The event continues to offer the complete convention experience: a giant Exhibit Hall (topping over 460\,000 square feet in its current incarnation); a massive programming schedule (close to 700 separate events in 2014)\, featuring comics and all aspects of the popular arts\, including hands-on workshops and educational and academic programming such as the Comics Arts Conference; anime and film screenings (including a separate film festival); games; the Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards\, the “Oscars” of the comics industry; a Masquerade costume competition with prizes and trophies; an Autograph Area; an Art Show; and Portfolio Reviews\, bringing together aspiring artists with major companies. \nComic-Con has presented literally thousands of special guests at its conventions over the years\, bringing comics creators\, science fiction and fantasy authors\, film and television directors\, producers\, and writers\, and creators from all aspects of the popular arts together with their fans for a fun and often times candid discussion of various art forms. The event has seen an amazing array of comics and book publishers in its Exhibit Hall over the years. Over it’s four–and-a-half decade-plus history\, Comic-Con International has continually presented comic books and comic art to a growing audience. That love of the comics medium continues to be its guiding factor as the event moves toward its second half-century as the premier comic book and popular arts style convention in the world. \n\n\nOn November 10\, 2018\, Comic-Con President\, COO and CFO John Rogers passed away. Read more about John and his longtime impact on the event and corporation.

SUMMARY:George Thorogood & The Destroyers
DESCRIPTION:There is this magical sweet spot that seems to be created when two genres mix and create something magnificent. Take a pinch of Chuck Berry’s Rock and Roll\, add in a dash of John Lee Hooker’s Blues\, and what you get is the hard-driving and toe-tapping musical mélange that is mastered by George Thorogood and The Destroyers. They were at a sold-out MTelus in Montreal the other night as part of this year’s annual Jazz Festival. There wasn’t very much jazz being played on this night\, but that’s not really what the packed house was looking for anyway. \nThey wanted some down-and-dirty rock and roll so that they could shake\, rattle and roll the night away. Played to the stage by Barry McGuire’s classic “Eve of Destruction\,” the band is then introduced wrestling style as “World Champions of Rock and Roll!” It didn’t take much more than that to get everyone up in the gallery to join their fellow rock fans on the floor by jumping to their feet. \nOpening the evening was Texas blues rocker Alastair Greene. He hit the stage in his best Texas outlaw gear\, though the only gun he was slinging was a mean electric guitar. His set was terribly short\, considering that he came out and immediately caught everyone’s attention with some slick guitar work. He may have been a rookie to the city\, but Alastair Greene has been rocking crowds for almost 20 years. The majority of his set came from his tenth album\, Standing Out Loud\, which was released last year. Hopefully\, he will be back soon and be able to play even more of his awesome songs. \n \n\n\nGetting back to our headliner\, George Thorogood hasn’t lost any of his energy\, or good nature\, despite being 75. I hope to have that much energy when I get to that point. He opened his set with ”Rock Party\,” a rather appropriate choice as that was exactly what we were all there for. A rock party for the ages. Even the venue got in on the fun\, offering up a special one bourbon\, one scotch and one beer trio for 23 dollars. That song\, of course\, got a huge reaction\, but the loudest cheer of the night had to be the opening riff of “Bad To The Bone.” The between-song banter was great as well as George was obviously having a great time. \nThe love-in between artist and crowd lasted all the way to the final notes. The Montreal fans had been waiting seven years since George Thorogood & The Destroyers last visited. Both ‘The Plague’ and other medical issues had kept George away\, but he was back\, and the crowd lined the street waiting to get in. There were more than a few disappointed fans who tried to buy some last-minute tickets while I was picking up my pass. \n \n\n\nOnce inside the building\, George Thorogood & The Destroyers made everyone forget the long wait. They absolutely lived up to their ‘Baddest Band In The World’ billing. George Thorogood & The Destroyers will be out there on tour until mid-August. Don’t miss your chance to get rocked by The World Champions of Rock and Roll when they come to a town near you.

SUMMARY:The Psychedelic Furs
DESCRIPTION:+ THE ROMANTICS / ROONEY \nNew wave icons the Psychedelic Furs built a career on mysterious pop songs guided by the world-weary and unmistakable vocals of Richard Butler plus an always-evolving sound that started off as stark post-punk then took detours into synth pop\, dance rock\, and mainstream alternative. Along the way\, they released a classic album that fused the energy of punk with the brightness of new wave (1981’s Talk Talk Talk) and a string of singles highlighted by “Love My Way\,” “Heaven\,” and “Heartbreak Beat” that proved popular and influential. Their classic song “Pretty in Pink” became the inspiration for the film of the same name and others showed up regularly in movies and TV shows. Though the band ran aground in the early ’90s\, they returned a decade later to launch a successful career as a live act\, and with their 2020 album Made of Rain\, proved they could still deliver epic and meaningful records. \nThe Romantics are one of power pop’s success stories. The Detroit combo took their danceable\, British Invasion-influenced sound from tiny clubs in their home town to airwaves and arenas all over the world. “What I Like About You\,” from their self-titled 1980 debut album\, became a hit single and a perennial favorite that helped define their spunky attack\, and 1983’s In Heat spawned “Talking In Your Sleep\,” a lean\, atmospheric number that would rise to the upper reaches of the singles charts. Legal matters kept the band out of the studio through much of the 1990s\, but they remained a hard-working live act and made a rousing return to form with 2003’s 61/49. \nRooney is the primary musical project of singer-songwriter Robert Schwartzman\, evolving from its origin as an American rock band formed by high school friends in Los Angeles. Before Schwartzman decided to continue the project in a different direction\, the band’s most enduring line-up consisted of Schwartzman (lead vocals\, guitar)\, Louie Stephens (keyboards\, piano)\, Taylor Locke (lead guitar\, backing vocals)\, Matthew Winter (bass guitar) and Ned Brower (drums\, backing vocals). The band is named after Ed Rooney\, the principal in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Their music is reminiscent of British Invasion rock and 1980s pop\, and has been compared to The Beatles\, The Cars\, Jellyfish\, Sloan and Queen. They have toured the nation with acts such as Weezer\, The Strokes\, Jane’s Addiction\, Travis\, Keane\, Audioslave\, OK Go\, and Queens of the Stone Age. \nOn the very rare occasion that a support act cancels\, the show will go on as scheduled. No refunds or exchanges. \nEvent details: \n🔹 Doors open: approximately 5:00 p.m. \n🔹 Fair admission: same day admission. \n🔹 Stay updated: Tune in to OC Fair Radio for concert and Fair updates: ocfair.com/radio

SUMMARY:Star Theatre Presents\, “Pippin”
DESCRIPTION:There’s magic to do when a prince learns the true meaning of glory\, love and war in Stephen Schwartz’s iconic and unforgettable musical masterpiece.  With an infectiously unforgettable score from four-time Grammy winner\, three-time Oscar winner and musical theatre giant\, Stephen Schwartz\, Pippin is the story of one young man’s journey to be extraordinary. Winner of four 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival\, this updated circus-inspired version of Pippin continues to captivate and appeal to the young at heart throughout the world.  Heir to the Frankish throne\, the young prince Pippin is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment. He seeks it in the glories of the battlefield\, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power (after disposing of his father\, King Charlemagne the Great). In the end\, though\, Pippin finds that happiness lies not in extraordinary endeavors\, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day. Pippin’s message is universal and will connect with audiences across the age spectrum.  Rated PG-13. \n\n\nFriday July 11\, 7:30pm \nSaturday July 12\, 7:30pm  \nSunday July 13\, 2:00pm \nFriday July 18\, 7:30pm  \nSaturday July 19\, 2:00pm \n Saturday July 19\, 7:30pm \nSunday July 20\, 2:00pm

SUMMARY:The Pharcyde & Friends Live
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the 30th Anniversary of Labcabincalifornia \nProduced in Partnership with Fusicology\nFri / July 18\, 2025 – 8:00PM\n\nThe LA hip-hop group performs their much-loved second album. \n\n\nThirty years ago\, when LA rap group The Pharcyde released their second album Labcabincalifornia\, there was nobody like them on the west coast. Vibe said the album was “reminiscent of early-career Sly & the Family Stone\, mid Stevie Wonder\, and late Sun Ra.” The Source said the hit single “Runnin’” was “a truly beautiful hip-hop song where the distinct elastic flow of each MC weaves over a Spanish-flavored guitar loop and sax sample.” The album cemented the members of The Pharcyde’s collective legacy as some of hip-hop’s farthest-out thinkers\, and it marked one of the first major appearances by a record producer calling himself Jay Dee\, sometimes known as J Dilla. In just a few short years\, he’d go on to become\, as NPR put it\, “one of the music industry’s most influential hip-hop artists.” For one night only\, The Pharcyde\, a full band\, and some very special guests will get together to celebrate 30 years of Labcabincalifornia\, as well as the always-expanding legacy of J Dilla.
