The competition for OC's entertainment money has gotten so intense it's bordering on bizarre. It seems like every weekend there's some fun nostalgic event to hit up. Don't believe me? Check out a sampling of some of the cooler/weirder/boozier things to do this month in Orange County.

August 14th - En Vogue in Anaheim
Remember En Vogue? I loved them, but they seemed to drop off the face of the musical universe after the 90s. Well, if you're in the mood for some good music and nostalgia, they'll be performing at the City National Grove of Anaheim on Thursday, August 14th. Yeah, the group members have changed over the years, but the music is still undeniably infectious. So as OC Weekly predicts, [you] "better believe there'll be some love makin', heart breakin', soul shakin' going on. 

En Vogue will be giving you something you can feel on Thursday, 
August 14th at the Grove in Anaheim.

Are you looking to get some night fever? The Troubies know how to do it! For a limited run, they will be taking on their disco interpretation of the Shakespearean classic, A Midsummer Night's Dream at The Laguna Playhouse. As the Playhouse description says, "The star-crossed lovers steam and scheme, and the Bard's most famous fairy, Puck, will be Jive Talkin' as this assorted band of merrymakers heats up into a Disco Inferno."
