Author Suzanne Schlosberg will be talking about her new book, The Good Neighbor Cookbook at Camalli Book Co. on Tuesday, February 1 starting at 6:30 pm.
It looks like the incredibly bizarre tale of Doitchin Krastev, the Bulgarian national who stole the identity of a dead toddler (Jason Evers) then somehow got a job as a regional manager with the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, is finally over.
After pleading guilty in November to aggravated theft and passport fraud, Krastev was sentenced today in Portland to two years (and one day) in federal prison.
Topping off a nice mid-week stretch of live music in Bend are The Pimps of Joytime, the genre-crossing, world-music rock act that will bring their big ol’ dance party to McMenamins tonight.
And it’s a free show, y’all.
Local author Ellen Waterston will be the featured presenter at this month’s Central Oregon Writer’s Guild meeting. If you enjoy hearing about our region chronicled through the eyes of a well-known nature poet, you will enjoy Waterston’s talk.

Lauren Kessler will be reading from her book, My Teenage Werewolf, at the Deschutes Public Library on Saturday, January 29 starting at 3pm.
Those of you familiar with the Edward Cullen vs.
Even though the show was only announced a week earlier, there was a great turn out at Silver Moon Brewery last night for LA-based folky-Americana rockers Dawes. The band treated the Tuesday night crowd to favorites from their most recent album Northern Hills, including “When My Time Comes” and “Love Is All I Am”. Better yet, the band performed songs from their upcoming album, which should be out this spring. New songs “Fire Away” and “Time Spent in Los Angeles” sounded awesome.
I was just cruising the Random Presents website and saw a nice little addition to this spring’s music calendar — G. Love & Special Sauce are returning to Bend.
Isn’t it fitting the day the Oscar’s are announced we find out both 127 Hours and Blue Valentine are opening at Pilot Butte this weekend? Finally, at long last, we can feast our eyes and minds on the critically acclaimed films.
