Davis Rodeo Ranch is a bit outside of Archdale, super close to High Point and amazingly easy to get to from really anywhere in the triad, not far off the highway. During the summer they host "Boot Barn Wild West Wednesday" rodeo events every other Wednesday night! You can check their website for the schedule of those as well as other events they have. The location is literally in the front yard of legendary bull rider Jerome Davis' house and he and his wife are very active in the event. We attended a couple times this past summer and had a great time each time! There are a lot of events and the MC (typically Jerome himself) did a great job describing the events and how the riders would be judged which was very helpful for the less experienced like us. This would be a great place for kids as well, and they even have a candy event where kids can go hunt for candy in between events. Parking is free, and they have very reasonable concessions, but you can also bring in some take out food if you preferred, we saw plenty doing this. If you want to try something a little different happening right in the triad, this is a great idea and is a great event to support!

So I used to love this festival. I used to love going to their documentaries. But I have PTSD and…read morecan't risk being trigged. Not too long ago I saw one of their free documentary screenings, which is something I really appreciate. What was advertised as a lighthearted movie actually had a complete tone shift halfway through that neither me nor my date expected. This was the second time they had seen the movie to, but they had forgotten about it because it had been several months. We had plans to grab drinks and hang out, but they canceled because the movie had bummed them out so much. I felt awful. There were themes of suicide and forced hospitalization. There was no trigger warning in the introduction and as a rule they do not do trigger warnings or content warnings before introducing movies. Which is their prerogative, but it doesn't make it a safe space for sexual assault survivors or people struggling with other issues. One of my friends has PTSD from being involuntarily committed to hospitals for her mental health disorder. I am so glad I didn't go with her because literally a week before I saw the movie we had talked about getting together and seeing a movie. I wish I could give them five stars but I can't give them more than 3 because the festival is not inclusive to a big chunk of society. I'm not asking for anything big. Just a 10 second trigger warning before they screen a movie. They always send someone out to intro movies and it wouldn't hurt them to take a few seconds to offer some vague warnings. Also this happened a while ago. I hesitated to post this but people should be aware of this and read the information on the movies closely and even then the information they provide might be inaccurate as it was with the Three Identical Strangers doc we saw. I personally loved the documentary but it WAS difficult to see that documentary at the time because I had been recently hospitalized for PTSD myself. Please be careful and take care. I know a lot of these movies aren't in wide release so there will be no info on doesthedogdie.com which is a great resource for all other movies that ARE in wide release (they track 60 common triggers (and I looked, three identical strangers IS there now and would have been available by the time it was screened the second time around because it was already Oscar nominated and in wide release by then. Lots of people had seen it). That being said, every movie thy show has been screened and carefully selected by someone at the festival. They see a lot of docs, I'm sure, but they also presumably know everything that happens in each one. I don't know how onerous it would be to keep track of maybe not 60 common triggers but perhaps the 10 most common ones? Five? Three? And be explicit about which ones ARE present in both the program for the festival and before the movie is screened.

I hired the West Street Band for Yelp's Totally Rad 80s Event a couple of weeks ago and I was…read morereally impressed. I was on the search for a band that could cover music from the 80s and early 90s and could keep the crowd excited!! West Street Band surpassed my expectations. I never had the opportunity to go hear them live before I hired them and they really impressed me and the crowd. Mike the lead singer was so easy and professional to work with. The band showed up right on time and was ready to rock n roll when the event started. This was the first event where I actually had folks dancing out on the dance floor and I have to give credit to the band for that. I look forward to working with West Street Band again in the future and I highly recommend them for events big or small.
