River deep, mountain high!

We tend to agree.

DR. WALLACE: I’m 17 and a girl who likes to dance. My new boyfriend, a really cool guy I met over this summer, has been great to hang out with. He’s been very respectful with me, loyal and humorous, and we’ve had a lot of fun times together already going to music shows, boating and hiking.

(Sweet as) Sugaray!

King Entertainer of the Year.” See Sugaray on stage at Vangarde Arts, 416 Pierce St., for an 8 p.m. Thursday night show.

Travails of the Tantrums!

We’ve loved Fitz and the Tantrums ever since the neo-soul band played Saturday in the Park. That is until we realized the group – famous for such hits as “Moneygrabber” and “HandClap” – played SITP all the way back in 2010. Then we feel sad, because we suddenly feel very old. Wait we forgot to tell you, Fitz and the Tantrums will be playing an 8 p.m. Friday show at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s Anthem, 111 Third St. Let’s be old together!
