TGIF!<\/p>\n
Welcome to the Arlington Report\u2019s new column, Out and About in Arlington, where I detail what\u2019s happening throughout the weekend in Arlington\u2019s Entertainment District and more. You can find your weekend to-do list here every Friday.<\/p>\n
Starting the weekend is Sports & Social Arlington, an event that will get us on our feet with live Salsa lessons. Even if your two left feet say otherwise, what\u2019s a dance lesson without a little embarrassment here and there?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Arlington will definitely feel that \u201cUptown Funk\u201d on Saturday when Bruno Mars stops at Globe Life Stadium as part of The Romantic Tour. Opening acts include MUTT singer Leon Thomas and Anderson .Paak\u2019s alter ego DJ Pee .Wee.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, end the weekend with songwriters who definitely outperform anything I wrote for my college creative writing class. Stop by Truth Vinyl in downtown Arlington to hear local songwriters and singers perform their originals as part of the record store\u2019s Sunday Songwriter Series.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However you choose to spend your weekend, please feel free to let me know by responding to this email. I look forward to keeping you in the know every Friday!\u00a0<\/p>\n
