Things To Do This Week.

Get The Jump On Your 5/6 – 3/12 Plans.

It's a good week to shake things up and try something different in Dallas. Take your pup over to Fair Park. Knock off your shoes while watching Centro-Matic's Will Johnson perform a solo set at The Belmont. Cross “learn to tie a bowtie” off that list of things to do before you die and head over to The Libertine's new Fancy Mondays. Or, heaven forbid, get your drink on out in Irving.

You get the idea. There's a lot going on.
