    <title>Punchline stand-up comedy | BYOB!</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;Punchline is the best show in town. No, silly, it&amp;#39;s not the local middle school&amp;#39;s production of Cats -- it&amp;#39;s THE BEST SHOW IN TOWN! Punchline is not only BYOB, but it&amp;#39;s a mere $5 to get in. Cheap. Date. City. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The show&amp;#39;s fast-paced and ridiculous, awkward, hopefully hilarious, and always entertaining -- local comedians each get four minutes onstage to work their magic.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;img src=&quot;http://a688.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/33/l_320af0ab2ccc503f768eacea59020e57.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt; </description>

There are a few decks from the 60&amp;rsquo;s, 70&amp;rsquo;s, and 80&amp;rsquo;s, but most are from the 90&amp;rsquo;s through recent issues. They include one-of-a-kind prototypes, signed limited editions, rare foreign releases, and some &amp;lsquo;holy grails&amp;rsquo; among skateboard collectors. The main focus is on the artwork itself &amp;ndash; it just happens to use a skateboard as its canvas.&amp;rdquo;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The exhibit opens on Friday, Feb 8, at 6pm, followed by live music and a full bar in the gallery beginning at 9 pm.&amp;nbsp; The gallery reopens for viewing&amp;nbsp;on Saturday, Feb 9&amp;nbsp;from&amp;nbsp;noon until&amp;nbsp;7pm, with a&amp;nbsp;special skateboarding demo hosted&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;Find and Grind Skate Shop.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Doors reopen at 9pm for live music and&amp;nbsp;a full bar; stay tuned for the exciting lineup.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;All proceeds benefit&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed&quot;&gt;Austin&lt;/span&gt; EcoSchool, a nonprofit &amp;ldquo;green&amp;rdquo; elementary school bridging the gap between homeschooling and private school.

    <title>Radio Silence</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;VORTEX Repertory Company and Uprise! Productions proudly present                the world premiere of Radio Silence: a word opera, a fresh-to-death                new bullet in the chamber from award-winning playwright, Zell Miller                III. Radio Silence: a word opera is a fast paced rhythmic ride.                This hip-hop theater performance piece fuses the physicality of                modern dance with high-energy spoken word and the sensibilities                of street politics. This new word opera is a choreopoem that challenges                and redefines taboos including race, sex, religion and politics,                with the back-drop of a fading media: the radio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Thurs - Sun)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>Dear Fraility</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;Written over a five-year span of artistic wandering, Dear Frailty is a mix of darkly comedic character monologues and absurdist performance pieces. &lt;br /&gt;Sifting through his own thoughts and the lives of personalities that &amp;ldquo;may as well exist out there,&amp;rdquo; Simone revels in the utter failure to find any degree &lt;br /&gt;of meaning in the predictability of human nature. Material ranges from his own perverse vision of what the future holds for capitalism as well as a &lt;br /&gt;pyromaniac grocery store clerk with a profound dislike of the elderly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arthur Simone is an improvisational actor, abstract expressionist artist and advocate of the culture of spontaneity. His artwork has been shown at &lt;br /&gt;galleries such as Chicago's Echo Gallery and art festivals such as Around the Coyote and the East Austin Studio Tour. Arthur's artwork has been&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;twice a nominated finalist for the prestigious Hunting Art Prize. A graduate of Oberlin College and a veteran of the Chicago stage with Suspicious &lt;br /&gt;Clowns and Moving Dock Theatre, he is a co-founder of Austin's ColdTowne Theater, where he teaches sketch, improv, and acting. On the screen, &lt;br /&gt;Arthur has starred in Jigsaw, The Evil One, A&amp;amp;E's Faith of My Fathers, Big Momma's House 2, and has been featured on the series Friday Night &lt;br /&gt;Lights. In 2007, he won the O'Henry Pun-Off World Championships (left), Austin's regional Air Guitar Championship, and most recently the Alamo &lt;br /&gt;Drafthouse's Air Sex World Championship.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
