Quick one-sentence rundown: Check out CD release events from Chuck Dimes and From Indian Lakes, laugh with Tommy Davidson [read interview], get hardcore at Fresno Fest 6 [read interview] or watch some mid-day b-boying at Starline.

ALSO: Today is "Mike Oz Day," so how about supporting a local business?

We gave you a nice rundown of upcoming comedy shows earlier in the week, and now we got another one. 'Tis the season to laugh, apparently.

The guys at Cloud 9 Productions pass along word that they've booked a date with Tommy Davidson (of "In Living Color" fame) for Dec. 19 at Warnors Theatre.

In addition to Davidson, the show will be hosted by Kid, of Kid-N-Play fame. That's intriguing. Hope he can grow back the super high-top fade in a month, though.

Brad Williams is also on the bill, as are local guys Andre Covington and Phillip Medina.

Tickets cost $25, $35 and $45. An on-sale date and ticket locations are still being worked on, but we'll pass along that info when we have it.

Remember, there are also some good comedy options this weekend -- check this week's "Five Things" list for details.

This has been a long time in the making -- and I hope it's worth it. Here is Vol. 4 of the "I Hate You, Mike Oz" series.

Backstory: This is actually more than a year old. I had written a column about the need for mid-size concert venue in town and said the Warnors Theatre, if you took out the seats on the first level, would be like the awesome Warfield in San Francisco. This gentleman was none too pleased with that idea. Notice that he called at 4:40 a.m.

Warning: NSFW

LISTEN: I Hate You, Mike Oz! (mp3)

This post brought to you by Ticketmaster China. When visiting Bejiing, spend your money on convenience fees.

Tesla, The Used and Lamb of God -- the downtown theater circuit is bout to have a rockin' week of concerts.

Tesla is playing tonight at Warnors Theatre -- and, nope, tickets are not sold out. The band is best known for its work in the late 80s and early 90s, including the hit single "Signs." Tickets cost $32.50.

Here's a look back at my weekend. Did you do anything good? Spill it in the comments.

FRIDAY
- All I could muster after a long week that included Rogue Festival and Kids Day was a quick jaunt over to Livingstone's. Quesadilla. Yum.

SATURDAY
- I caught Ryan Paulson's "I'm Uncomfortable," which had a crazy line for a 11:30 a.m. show. The show was hilarious and was a good way to end this year's Rogue for me. I hope he comes back next year with another show. So far he's 2-for-2 in my book.

- The Fresno Home & Garden show was PACKED. Like Christmas-at-the-mall packed. Like testing-your-patience-not-to-scream-at-someone packed. I was pretty ho-hum on the show for the first half of it, but I ended up finding some backyard/landscaping ideas that I dug.

- Caught psychic/clairvoyant Lisa Williams at the Warnors Theatre. I was intrigued for a few reasons: (1) I hadn't been to the Warnors in a while. (2) This was a different type of show for Fresno and I wanted to see what it was like. (3) I'm not sure whether I believe in the whole "I talk to dead people" thing. The show didn't really make up my mind on the last one. Some of the stuff she told people seemed pretty amazing, but then some of it seemed like logical guesses. I do know that I was awestruck by how beautiful that theater is. It was very nice to see it lit up while driving around downtown.

SUNDAY
- Didn't watch "Extreme Makeover: Fresno Edition." Negative 10 Fresno points for me, eh?
