Yes, THAT James Brown, the "Godfather of Soul", Friday, September 15 at Stir Concert Cove at Harrah's, 8 pm. Though by now, I expect if you're interested, you already have your tix.

Sweet!


There've been (and are coming up) a lot of good shows in the Omaha metro, thanks in no small part to Stir Cove (and some would argue the MAC).

That's what we're looking for..I don't know what went wrong in the other 2 threads..I mean, it's okay to dislike a show..But I am also interested in why you don't like it (as I suspect we all are)..It makes for more interesting discussion than a 'gross' or a 'yuck' only..Don't you think?..

What kind of a venue is Stir Cove?

I've seen a few acts go through that I've thought about seeing, but my disdain for casinos (note I said casinos, not gambling... ban smoking and I'm all over the blackjack tables (and no, I'm not holding my breath - figuratively or literally - on that one)) has always kept me from looking any further into it.

It's an outside venue. There are some chairs and a grassy area. It's not bad.

It was my epic trilogy of gut responses to (what I consider) at best mediocre music acts. :P
