The Balcony Big Band Brings Big Sound to Jergel’s; Josh Verbanets Hosts Acousticafe at Club Cafe (Mon., 11/16/15)

1) The Balcony Big Band is hitting only high notes in a Monday night performance at Jergel’s Rhythm Grille. The 18 member group makes a big, beautiful sound. Get in some Monday relaxation with good music. 7 p.m. No cover. 285 Northgate Dr., Warrendale.

2) Check out new and established talent at one of the city’s best open stage nights, Club Cafe’s AcoustiCafe. The host of tonight’s supportive and friendly event is Josh Verbanets.. No cover. 7 p.m. 56 – 58 S. 12th St., South Side.

3) Ocean’s Eleven – Director Steven Soderbergh got the tone exactly right in this 2001 remake of the 60’s Rat Pack caper film. Detached and impossibly cool, there’s humor, intelligence and not a little style all at work here telling the story of a crew of con men who plan and carry out the largest heist in the history of Las Vegas. Soderbergh’s studied and controlled cinematography places an extremely sophisticated George Clooney at the center of a large cast playing brilliantly off one another: Brad Pitt, Andy Garcia, Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, Carl Reiner, Elliott Gould and, especially, the late Bernie Mac who manages to steal every scene he’s in. 9:40 p.m. Row House Cinema, 4115 Butler St, Lawrenceville.
