7+1

Thursday 6.25

Luck Be a Lady. Older Tulsans may remember the thriving downtown shopping district that withered away post-WWII. One of the popular stores there was Seidenbach's, a department store that sold upscale goods for almost 40 years. Revisit the mall madness of yesteryear with an exhibit honoring the store at Tulsa Historical Society, 2445 S. Peoria. Visitors can see a selection of clothing, hats and accessories from the Seidenbach family as well as advertisements and photos. There's plenty of time to see the fascinating display as it hangs through January 2010. Visit tulsahistory.org or call 712-9484 for more information.

Sorry, Ma.

Monday 6.29

Pill Poppers. Medicine is something that influences the lives and decisions of people from all walks of life. This special screening of the documentary Generation RX is meant to raise awareness of the multitude of medications people consume each day, examining the downside of a society dependent on too many drugs. The film pays special attention to the ever increasing role of pharmaceuticals in the lives of children and the all too cozy relationship between the FDA and the big drug makers. Catch the show at 7pm at the Eton Square Cinema, 8421 E. 61st. Call 895-8899.

Tuesday 6.30

Billabrawl. The corner of 18th and Boston is known for its bumping nightlife, and Mercury Lounge is known for its robust live music calendar often featuring punk and rockabilly acts you won't see anywhere else in town. Tonight Orange Country natives The Rocketz bring psychobilly to Tulsa for a night of driving beats, beer inspired sing-a-longs and a rambunctious good time. The show starts at 8pm. You can catch the band earlier in the day at 5pm at Hot Topic in Promenade Mall, 4107 S. Yale. Visit myspace.com/therocketz to get an earful.

Wednesday 6.1

Beer Goggles. There's just no denying that the Brady Arts district is a hip little corner of downtown with its stock very much on the rise. A stalwart of the area, Caz's Pub, 21 E. Brady, has been (in their words) "helping ugly people have sex since 1995." Caz's is a place with a sense of humor and the good vibrations are apparent among the regulars you will find there. Happy hour runs every day but Sunday from 2-7pm. Tonight is Ladies Night with $1.50 Boulevard Wheat after 7pm. Visit cazspub.com for a complete list of nightly specials.
