Evening plans that don't require driving down the hill: live music, wine, and a show.
The usual recipe works: dinner in Murphys, then whatever's on that night. Some evenings that's a band at the Lube Room in Arnold, some it's music at a winery, and in summer it's often a show up at Bear Valley.
Everything below is an upcoming evening event in the live music, wine, fine arts, or festival lanes. Start times run mostly 5 to 7 up here; check the event page for details and the weather chip before you pick a patio.
