GWAR / Kingdom of Sorrow / Toxic Holocaust Only lead singer Oderus Urungus (aka Dave Brockie) has stuck around since GWAR's start 23 years ago, but the huge costumes, raunchy and obscene lyrics, and fluids spraying into the audience are sure to be on full display as the metal band makes its return to Dallas.

I went to see Ella at the DTC opening week. I have been to many events downtown and actually love this theatre. My wife is a huge Ella fan as am myself. I must say that I was pleasantly suprised by the quality of this production as well as the music. She had such a distinctive voice and sound that it could be easy to butcher something like this.
We are actually taking the in-laws next weekend to give them a bit of "culture". Also makes it a bit easier finding tickets (half price for all you bargain shoppers) on http://stubdog.com that way we can impress our guests with theatre tix.
How about Billy Holiday next?
