Things To Do This Week.

Get The Jump On Your 9/23 – 9/29 Plans.

Autumn is officially here, and we haven't even started planning our Halloween costumes yet! We've been too distracted with the sudden glut of activities Dallas has been bursting with recently. Take this week, for example. There's a solid music bill nearly every night, culminating in a two-day festival in Fort Worth over the weekend. Bike rides, T-shirt shows and the 25th annual VideoFest are sprinkled in there somewhere, too. Oh well. We can always just recycle last year's costume. Black Swan is still the “in” thing this year, right?
