Enter to win tickets to see Cyndi Lauper at TPAC

It's hard to believe that it's been 30 years since Cyndi Lauper released her iconic debut album She's So Unusual. So, imagine our excitement when Lauper announced not one but two Tennessee dates for her She's So Unusual Tour, celebrating the groundbreaking album.

Recorded and released in 1983, Lauper’s debut solo album is a colorful portrait of a unique and multifaceted talent. The album features some of Lauper’s most well-known songs and perennial radio favorites including “Girls Just Want to Have Fun,” “Time After Time,” “She Bop,” “Money Changes Everything,” and “All Through the Night.” She’s So Unusual made Lauper a household name and cemented her place in musical history as the first female artist to have four top 10 singles on a debut album. The release went on to sell over 16 million copies worldwide and won Lauper a Grammy® Award for Best New Artist.

Lauper also made headlines earlier this year when she became the first female in history to win a Tony Award for Best Score for her work on the Broadway smash Kinky Boots. 

Lauper will perform first, November 5, at TPAC and the following night in Knoxville at the Tennessee Theater. At each concert, Lauper will perform the record-setting album in its entirety and share intimate, never-before-heard stories from the recording of the album. 

Out & About Nashville wants to send two lucky readers and their guests down memory road for Lauper's October 5 performance at TPAC.

SHOREHAM, VT (September 13, 2023) — WhistlePig Whiskey, the leaders in independent craft whiskey, and Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake are waving the checkered flag on a legend-worthy release that’s taking whiskey to G-Force levels.

The third iteration in WhistlePig’s Single Barrel PiggyBack Legends Series, the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Barrel is bottled at 96.77 proof, a nod to Valtteri Bottas’ racing number, 77, and the precision of racing. Inspired by Zhou Guanyu, the first Chinese F1 driver, this Rye Whiskey is finished with lychee and oolong tea. Herbal and floral notes of the oolong tea complement the herbaceous notes of WhistlePig’s signature PiggyBack 100% Rye, rounded out with a juicy tropical fruit finish and a touch of spice.

by Spectrum Medical Care Center

Nurse Practitioner Ari Kravitz

I hope more providers get trained in LGBTQ+ healthcare, so they can support patients along their individual gender journey, and provide the info needed to make informed decisions about their body. I’ve personally seen my trans patients find hope and experience a better quality of life through hormone replacement therapy.
