[Northkeep] was steak, more Tulsa temptations and okie gr ammar

[Keith Duke]

Local live music... 

Lots of little holes in the wall with small acts, Cain's Ballroom gets a
fair amount of up and coming acts (my grammer used to dance there to Bob
Will's back when she was a girl, I have seen everything from western swing
to metal there), The Expo Center gets some fairly big acts occasionally, The
ORU Mabee Center gets some top name Christian acts...

There's a whole block downtown that's basically nothing but a bunch of
different clubs with a wide variety of acts... Disco/blues/piano
bar/hip-hop/metal/karaoke/rock etc.

You might check out www.urbantulsa.com - they are sort of an alternative
newspaper with lots of listings for what's going on (and they have "News of
the Weird" and the "Life in Hell" comic strip)

The PAC or Tulsa Performing Arts Center (and I suppose the Chapman Music
Hall too) are high end venues for opera, ballet, & symphonic type stuff... 

Oh yeah.. Don't forget Oktoberfest, Mayfest, Greenwood Jazz festival, Tulsa
Blues festival, and less than an hour away there's the OK Mozart festival
(Which is absolutely killer). The summer series of Parks and Recreation
sponsored "Concerts in the park"...  

I have probably forgotten a few... But you get the idea...

ones too! - I'm a big guy. I know food!)

Well, the local language is quite daunting.  I was about to tell my husband
I could not learn another language kiss the job goodbye. Then I saw the part
about live music and PAC.  Due tell

"Stop that this instant!", but occasionally used when speaking to horses to
indicate a strong desire for a marked increase in forward velocity.)

Occasionally, I have heard "Rat cheer, Rat now" indicating that something is
to take place, or be positioned in very close physical proximity to the
speaker, immediately.


Hmmmmm - Has anyone mentioned the fairly groovy local live music scene? Or
the PAC? 

Generally Tulsa qualifies as a great place to live... I've had the good
fortune to travel widely, and having seen virtually all of the US, it beats
the socks off most places without even getting up out of it's
Barca-lounger...

Also ther's "arncha" = aren't you, "bleeve"= believe, "didja"= did you,
"cuz"= because (not what you call your cousin... which is usually
"sweetie"). And of course there are a varity of general purpose phrases such
as "big 'ol" which is used for any object larger than you can hold in your
hands, and "deal" which is of course any object small enough to be held in
one or two hands. And if ever you hear somebody call out "Hey, lookit what
Ah can do!" or "Hey y'all, watch this!" take cover! Or it will be the last
Okie phrase you ever hear.

"Eyah"(I guess so), or "Naw"(no thank you, perhaps another time).

"Nope" is more common, I think. But "perhaps another time" would more
properly be "Natchet."
