If you're like me, you're always starving for entertainment in this godforesaken city.Having gone to college in South Louisiana where there are cultural things to do every weekend (if not every day), I sometimes crave something to do besides the club, a restaurant or the movies (I'm not a casino person so that's not an option).
For most of us "grown and sexy" folks, we look to Dallas for entertainment; some even travel as far as Houston, Jackson, or New Orleans.
I love the efforts of local party promoters who try to bring live entertainment (or any form of entertainment) to our fair city, but let's be real, sometimes you have to leave the city to see what's really out there.
So here are some concerts/shows coming to a stage not far from here. Take some of your refund money (or paycheck lol) ... and indulge yourself ... There are some really hot shows coming up very soon! -- Take a look:

That's all for the next few months ... I'll update as necessary but if you're willing to take a 3-6 hour drive, there are some great shows. BBD & TTT! Tyler Perry. MJB and J-Z!!! I'm sooo going to try and see Trey Songz or Chrisette Michele and I know some people already talking about Alicia and Kirk's concerts. There's so much to see and do if you're willing to take the drive!
OH! By the way, Patti LaBelle and Yolanda Adams will be performing in Houston in a couple weeks .. Check www.ticketmaster.com for ticket information.
