Some pieces in Campuzano's "Touch Sensitive" are the product of a forward-looking artist experimenting with scale and presentation in a way previously unseen in his work. Others are based on sketchbook designs and mementos he collected over the years, ideas that have finally reached critical mass.

The Bucks County folky fuzz rockers are putting out their current release, The Adventures of Kid Catastrophe, in stages. Fans buy the flash drive at one show, remember to bring it back a month later, and fill it up with more music from either the merch stand or the band. Commence difficulty.

"This show was produced without the use of any shamrocks, green beer or blarney stones," reads a Skin Deep program note. "No leprechauns or 'lords of the dance' were harmed in the making of this production."

The site looks nice, right?

What You Say

Hordes of young men race toward the three rows of Xboxes, playing tournament games of Halo, America's Army and Madden, as well as to the Apache and Black Hawk attack helicopter and Humvee combat simulators. Smiling recruiters chat with the gamers and provide a running commentary on the tournaments. One tall, muscular man with a booming voice speaks into a wireless microphone, eerily projecting his encouragement over an invisible speaker system.

No green vegetable dye (wimps) and nothing spray-on. Shout Hallelujah and come get hairy.

The Running Numbers Pet Peeve and Petty Complaint Department airs its grievances.

When news breaks in Philadelphia, we make jokes.

In an abstract sense, the film is about this dissemination, the saga of Che refashioned. Each half of the film is based on a book by Guevara, but neither takes a single perspective or tells one story. Taken apart, the halves suggest a conventional narrative split (say, rise and fall, promise and failure), but together they form a beguiling sort of disorder.

Soderbergh has described himself as something of a fiend for pacing. But after the massive success of Dark Knight, he says the conventional wisdom that audiences won't see long movies no longer holds true. Besides, he points out, "We told the story of the Cuban revolution in less time than it took to tell Sex and the City."

Outside, the arrow in Prohibition's towering, neon-red one-word sign ("BAR") points locals to a rotating selection of eight U.S. brews on tap (with another on hand pump) and 50 international bottles. But is this blazing beacon bright enough to draw a citywide crowd? Yes — much of the food deserves a neon sign, too.

Two weeks ago, owner Ming Chu upgraded the menu, adding items like vegetable tempura, peanut beef and a vegan-friendly deep-fried cheesecake. New Harmony is also turning its basement into a VIP room, complete with big-screen TV and 10,000-song karaoke selection.
