Houston's Online Weekend Entertainment Guide

Our Weekend Entertainment Picks for Weekend Saturdays in December

Maxwell
& Mary J. Blige    
@Toyota Center

Mary J and Maxwell make their way to the Bayou City just before concerting in Dallas, TX this weekend. 
     Recently while concerting in Atlanta, GA the two were reviewed by Grown Folks Music.com blog.
"What has endeared her to her fans (particularly women) for the last 24 years is how she’s put it all into her artistry and produced a soundtrack for a generation."
     "The “grownness” did not end there. Maxwell‘s full-time return to recording and performing has included a style evolution into a full on, sharp-dressed man much to the delight of the female fans. He was smartly dressed in a tailored suit and backed by a six-piece band that came to put in work."

This Weekend's Essential Movies
@Weekend America Networks.com

Winger    
@The Ballroom
at Warehouse Live


The band's musical style combines elements of glam metal and progressive metal. Kip Winger, in describes the band's musical ability and style, saying, "Our band was known to musicians, and a lot of musicians showed up to see me play — watching, trying to figure out how I'm playing. We were like the 'hair band' version of Dream Theater."

They started in New York City, Winger gained popularity during the late 1980s and early 1990s. They broke up and got back together in 2001. The band's two platinum albums, Winger and In the Heart of the Young, along with charting singles "Seventeen", "Headed for a Heartbreak" and "Miles Away", put the band on the top of the charts by the early 1990s
     The band's namesake Kip Winger recently scored with a classical tribute album; Kip Winger topped Billboard’s Traditional Classical Albums chart with Conversations With Nijinsky, performed by the San Francisco Ballet Orchestra. Read more at Billboard.com.
