EIGHT DAYS

Thurs/July 1 I've had the honor of voting for Ralph Nader not once, but twice: in '96 and 2000.

Fri Kathy Griffin, the shrill redhead who according to our Calendar listings has been on Mad About You and Ellen, shows up at the Irvine Improv. You know what they left off?

Sun If'n you ain't got a debauched and drunken party of your own to go to, we recommend the Fourth of July barbecue at J. King Neptune's in Sunset Beach (our only caveat is they don't have a patio, and you'll likely be sitting inside on a beautiful day) for the groovy covers of the George Fryer Combo.

Thurs/July 8 There's nothing more American than The Gipsy Kings, though it'd be even nicer to see 'em at an outdoor venue. Still, The Grove doesn't suck, and unlike some other places we could name, you're permitted to mover la culita. The Kings own a greater percentage of the American songbook than even Cole Porter, with happy rumba ass-shakers such as “Bambaleo,” “Baila Me,” “Habla Me”and “Hotel California. 8 p.m. $65.50-$97.50.
