Chris Stapleton Canceled — Here's What to Do Instead

As you know, Chris Stapleton was supposed to perform in Fresno tonight but had to back out for reasons unknown. But you already hired that babysitter, and it’s a shame to waste a perfectly good night out, especially when it’s an Art Hop night.

So here are 5 things you can do tonight instead of seeing Chris Stapleton.

1. Moonage Daydream by Meaghan McCready, a Tribute to David Bowie

Fresno Dance Collective presents an original aerial art show honoring music legend David Bowie. Set to a soundtrack of six classic Bowie songs, “Moonage Daydream” combines aerial, dance, and acrobatic partnering to tell the story of a young Martian girl’s journey to Earth. 5-10 p.m. at the Pacific Southwest Building.

I grew up in Fresno. Relaxed in its calm breezes, listened with my dad to the crack of the bat at little league baseball games when I was a kid and now take my son to do the same at minor league games. I broadened my mind at its schools (I went to high school right here at San Joaquin Memorial, and to college at Fresno State!) I love that if I drive for two hours in one direction, I can be in the mountains. For two hours in another, luxuriating on a California beach. I can enjoy the cosmopolitan atmosphere of San Francisco or Los Angeles, but still be able to come home to relaxation, calm, and quiet.

I love where I live, and I also love what I do. I'm lucky to be able to work in a profession in which I get to build relationships; one that has me meeting new people each and every day and helping them to build new lives in my beloved city. I'm lucky enough to work in a profession in which I can marry cutting-edge technologies and marketing techniques to good, old-fashioned, nose-to-the-grindstone work. I am lucky enough to work in a profession that allows me to work as an advocate for my clients; to use every tool at my disposal to get a job done well for them, and with as little stress and expense as possible.

I love my city. I love my job. One inspires my excellence for the other.

Fresno? I say FresYES
