Several stars are headlining in Oakland this weekend, but you don't need to be at the Fox or the Paramount to have a good time; The Town has something for everyone.
On Thursday and Friday kick-off the weekend with The Generations Party at Uptown Nightclub, or a comedy show at Spice Monkey Bar & Restaurant. Also, make time to attend a disaster relief fundraiser at Encuentro Café and Wine Bar.
On Saturday and Sunday, the East Bay Bonsai Society has its 56th annual show, and the Oakland Paint Fair kicks off at Flax Art & Design. Both nights offer a chance to see guitar legend Dick Dale, comedian Bill Maher and composer Ludovico Einaudi.
