  • We know where we're going this Saturday—straight to Hell! And we couldn't be more excited. Every Saturday from now through Halloween, the Steve Allen Theater in Hollywood presents "Hollywood Hell House." Hell Houses have become a staple of the Halloween season for Christian kids across the country over the last few years, and now LA has one of its very own. Of course, ours is full of snarky comedians like Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman,...

  • We're never ones to turn down free stuff, and free stuff that's viewable from a passing trolley is even better. So today, we salute the Grove's summer concert series, which has been offering free shows every Wednesday this month. We're really sorry we missed out on Jada Pinkett Smith and Wicked Wisdom, whatever that is, but there's still time to catch the final show of the season tomorrow night. Music in malls stirs up...

  • Two qualities that can be found in ample and regrettable supply among Angelenos are arrogance and a sense of entitlement. You see it all the time, people who feel like the rules don't apply to them, who think they can get away with things the rest of us would never stoop to attempt. Sometimes, their actions cause direct harm or gross inconvenience to other people. More often, they just piss us off. We may...

  • This week's installment of Good Grove/Bad Grove was going to focus on the impact the Grove shopping complex at Fairfax and Third has had on other local businesses, and as it turns out, our timing couldn't be more apt. As anyone who attempted to see the exclusive L.A. engagement of She Hate Me this week (anyone?) discovered this past Sunday, the struggling AMC Beverly Connection cinemas breathed their last breath and, without any warning,...

  • When we posted yesterday's inaugural Busted in L.A. Quiz, we had faith that our readers would recognize it as the bathroom where George Michael had such a hard day in 1998. He went in looking for some fastlove, and he reached the edge of heaven, when — wham! — suddenly, the cops closed in, and he briefly lost his freedom. We knew you were waiting (for us) to post the answer. What we didn't...
