Hottest prom north of Havana

Adult prom at Sanford and Son

Saturday at 7 p.m., Sanford and Son Antiques hosts an adult prom with the theme “Copacabana,” featuring music by The Toughtimes, Si Si Si and DJ Infinity. Which reminds me: What ever happened to Barry Manilow’s nose? I vaguely remember hearing terrible news reports that the man who writes the songs that make the whole world sing walked into a wall and maimed his precious proboscis. It was so bad that he was even talking about surgery. Oh Mandy, I can’t bear the thought.

Anyway, Sanford and Son’s adult proms are a serious blast — with prom photos, dancing, food and booze. Everyone will dress fancy — on the Cuban side I imagine — because music and passion always require fashion … or something. So while you salsa and merengue Saturday in a dress cut down to there, take a moment and think of Barry and his treasure of a nose.

[Sanford and Son Antiques, 7 p.m. to midnight, 21 and older, $20 advance, $25 door, 744 Commerce, Tacoma, 253.272.0334]
