Get ready for the Snyderville Interface ultimate throwdown as S-ville’s urban core (Newpark Town Center) starts up its weekly Friday Night Concert series (fall only) with local raggae act PATWA Friday, Sept. 3.
The Newpark Amphitheater is conveniently located in Kimball Junction, off highway 224. The Newpark concerts are privately funded by the Newpark Owners Association, a nonprofit organization, and the Newpark neighborhood residents, shops, restaurants, and businesses.
In honor of ‘Twitter Tuesday’ (we just made that up, awesome, right?) We pulled off some dealio’s rollin’ up on our twitter feed just in time to share them with our peeps.
Meditrina: When ya gotta sing, ya gotta sing. And beer is usually involved. Meditrina’s got all your bases covered tonight with their monthly poetry reading and open mic night from 9-10 p.m. But the real deal? Uinta Beers (delicious, liquid courage to calm those pre-song nerves) are only $2.50 all day long
Slow Train: So you don’t want to sing it out at open mic night? Let someone do it for ya. Today’s the last day of Slow Train’s ‘Back to School’ sale. Cheap grooves ($9.99? Yeah!) will certainly help get you through the week.
Out2NailYa! : Indulgence on a dime. Half priced pedicure’s all day Wednesday, cause summer’s not over yet….which means sandals are still allowed, only if your toes are pretty though.
Got Beauty?: Pretty toes require pretty shoes. Got Beauty is ‘kicking-off’ their $9 shoe sale tomorrow, with….yep $9 shoes.
Iceberg Drive Inn: Whoever said that twitter fad was bad had it allll wrong. Iceberg is rewarding their tweeps with a special deal: Buy a burger + shake and get a free fry/onion ring order. Follow them on the twitter-machine to get some grub.
Windy Ridge: Taco Tuesday! $2 Tacos and loads of guac. served up w/ a side of cerveza is the perfect end to a looong (tues)day.
Side Note: Everytime we are at overcapacity can we just throw up the fail whale and take a break too?
And just because we brought the fail whale up, it might be essential to share the best/worst tattoo of all time:

Baby NeeNee the only children’s boutique in Park City is having a sale! Clothes for kids, infant through 6 for boys and up to size 7 for girls, are discounted 50-75 percent.
I don’t have kids so these brands don’t mean anything to me, but NeeNee has Luna Luna, Kissy Kissy, Petit Bateau, Charlie Rocket and Kate Mack. Owner Casey Marsh personally selects all items and features local and eco-friendly items in every price range and category.
If your baby has more than enough clothes and you’re not booked for any baby showers then why not prepare for the future. It seems to me that someone is always announcing a pregnancy, and their are the holidays to shop for. Aside from cute clothing, you can find toys, books, shoes, bedding and towels here.
The Children’s Hour Bookstore has been a staple in the 9th and 9th neighborhood for 26 years, providing books, toys, clothes and accessories for babies, tots, teens and women.
Contrary to the name, the boutique has so much more than books for the kids. The store boasts a wide selection of women’s fashion, including Free People, BB Dakota and Rebecca Taylor, along w/ styles for all shapes and sizes. You’ll also find matching accessories or the perfect shoes to complete the ensemble.
The Children’s Hour Bookstore is also the ultimate gift shop stop. Toys and trinkets for all ages decorate the interior of the quaint boutique, promising hours of in-store perusing.
SLmag and the Children’s Hour have an exclusive giveaway for our readers. We want to help you get your little one’s back-to-school chic or treat yourself to something special.
Print out this coupon and get a free app (and perhaps a chance meeting with Redford) at Zoom.
We recommend the Grilled Flatbread mascarpone-roasted garlic spread, caramelized onion, portobello mushrooms, sundried tomato or you can’t go wrong with the White Cheddar Macaroni & Cheese — deeee-lish.
Yes, it’s a little early to be thinking about Christmas, but, The Radio City Rockette’s are ready to roundhouse-kick their way into the yuletide season. The dancing delights will be making a stop in the city of snow Nov. 26-29 at the Maverik Center and we’ve got your chance to score pre-sale tix. SLmag readers can buy tickets to the Radio City Christmas Spectacular before the public sale. It’s easy to enjoy the flawless precision of these world-famous performers; click here and use the password “XMAS” (yes, all caps.)
But wait, there’s more!
Have you ever longed to be a Rockette? To wave your leggy goodness before the world?
On August 12, you’ll have your chance. The Radio City Rockettes are expanding their annual “Christmas in August” event to 8 cities beyond New York, and Salt Lake made the list!
Festivities start at 12 p.m. at Gateway Mall Plaza/Olympic Fountain. The first 100 to participate in the kick-line will receive a performance voucher for the Rockettes when they come to the Maverick Center from November 26-29. Nothing brings Christmas cheer like being silly at the mall!
You can also “kick for a cause” online at www.radiocitychristmas.com . If the website reaches one million kicks, Garden of Dreams will send deserving children and their families to see the production.
But if you really want to be a Rockette, you should probably do both. Opportunities like these are few and far between.
I have this thing for HGTV. It’s sort of a guilty pleasure of mine to sit on my couch and learn about home design and decoration. I love watching designers coordinate wood floors, granite countertops, bathroom tiles…the whole she-bang. I know, kind of nerdy.
Contempo Tile is kind of like a real-live HGTV. They’ve got Utah’s largest selection of ceramic, porcelain and nature stone tiles. Contempo offers beautiful, exotic lines from all over the world, including Brazil and Italy. The SLC showroom has just recently been remodeled and looks better than ever. Stop in to see the latest products and learn about the newest trends in tile or receive customized creative solutions from one of the design-savvy staff members.
Or just wander around and pretend like you’re on HGTV…
