Caliente Contest
The undisputed king of electric
blues is scheduled to play to a
packed audience Friday night at
Centennial Hall.

BB King is one of the most well-
known living blues musicians in
the world, and certainly the most
famous person to ever come out
of the tiny town of Itta Bena,
Miss.

The 2000 census pegged Itta
Bena's population at about 4,000
residents living within a 1.5
square mile area.

Yet the town still managed to
make it into the 2000 Coen
brothers film, "O Brother, Where
Art Thou?"

In the movie, a notorious
gangster terrorizing the the
Deep South stops George
Clooney's character Everett and
his crew and asks them how to
get to Itta Bena.

Name the gangster and the
actor who played him for a
chance to win a set of three
cookbooks.

HoCo Festival lineup

The annual HoCo Festival at Hotel Congress is a three-day celebration of music that's become a Labor Day weekend tradition (Aug. 29-31).

The festival's lineup includes The Meat Puppets, Ned Sutton and the Rabbits, Gentlemen Afterdark, Devil Makes Three, Centro-matic, Golden Boots, Mr. Free and the Satellite Freakout!, Al Perry, The Mother Truckers and lots more.

Caliente has lined up some of the best young Tucson bands to perform on the Caliente Stage on Aug. 31. They are:

  • RCougar
  • Feel Good Revolution
  • The Runaway Five
  • West
  • Young Mothers

    The festival began as a way to celebrate the historic venue's 20th anniversary in 2005, and it has just kept going due to overwhelming response.

    It was renamed the HoCo Festival in 2007. And this year it's added "Tucson's Green Music Festival" to the title.

    In addition to three nights of live music, this year's festivities include a record festival selling vinyl albums, record equipment and music memorabilia; a fashion show and a Green expo. Keep reading for more band lineups and other details.
