Melanie C, Crankin! Power and Resilience in Washington, D.C.’s Go-Go Culture Book Launch, and Steph Phest: City Lights for Sept. 10–16 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It seems only appropriate for Sporty Spice to have an album titled Sweat. Melanie C, the aforementioned sporty one of the ’90s juggernaut that was the Spice Girls, released her ninth studio album this past May. And yes, it contains a multitude of tracks that, if I may be so bold as to borrow from C + C Music Factory, are gonna make you sweat, something that will be on full display when she appears at the 9:30 Club on Sept. 11.

Read excerpt
It’s easy to forgive Dave Grohl for dropping an expletive as a way of opening Foo Fighters’ sold-out, three-hour show at Nationals Park on Monday night.

Before England went up against Argentina in the semifinals, Strange told City Paper, “I would love to see them go far. I’m really proud of them. I think right now I’m kind of just rooting against Argentina.” Tho
Ticket to Paradise? The D.C. Council Unanimously Passes Law To Protect Consumers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yesterday, the D.C. Council passed the Restricting Egregious Scalping Against Live Entertainment Amendment Act of 2025. Dubbed the RESALE Act, the bill aims to protect consumers who purchase resold tickets via third-party websites for events taking place in the District. (The bill is comparable to Maryland’s Senate Bill 539, which Gov. Wes Moore signed into law in 2024.) Introduced last year by Ward 6 Councilmember Charles Allen, the legislation contains ticket-buyer protections including: The p
