NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH: Adam Hoover’s Crusade

Taking back Telfair Street - page 14


Changing her son’s diaper in the sunlit playroom, Ellen Hoover caught a movement from beyond her picture window.  Her eyes followed the vehicle coming to a slow stop in front of the small blue house across the street. The male driver stayed in the idling car and a young woman got out, looking around warily. The girl knocked at the door, but there was no answer, so she walked around to the side of the house where a high fence obscured the back yard. She returned to the car empty-handed. “Another one,” Ellen sighed. “Can’t they see what kind of damage they’re doing?”


“This team effort underscores what can be done when 
we all work together towards a common goal. These proactive efforts establish 
a new model for how we will address this type of situation going forward.” 
— MAYOR DEKE COPENHAVER

Imperial Theatre presents: Robert Earl Keen

Wednesday, March 23 at 7:30 PM With his latest Lost Highway album, The Rose Hotel (which hit #1 on the Americana charts), Keen re-confirms his place among the Lone Star State's great storytellers, capable of painting rich, poignant landscapes worthy of Cormac McCarthy and spinning satirical yarns that'd do Kinky Friedman proud. The disc's rough-hewn tone -- which is one of the more immediate, organic efforts in Keen's varied catalog -- emphasizes both ends of that emotional spectrum, with Band-styled organ washes dappling the evocative title track and a hoedown-worthy breakdown propelling the wry "Wireless in Heaven" to its conclusion. For more information about The Rose Hotel, visit www.robertearlkeen.com Tickets: $13 - $23
