Atlanta Journal/Constitution International
Auto Show @ Georgia World Congress Center
Area new car enthusiasts will once again have the chance to shop
and compare from over 38 different lines of new vehicles when the
23rd Annual Atlanta Journal-Constitution International Auto Show
returns to the Georgia World Congress Center on April 9-17, 2005.
This will mark the first year that this very successful show will
run for nine days. This expansion is really no surprise, because
Atlanta has been one of the fastest growing five day auto shows
in the nation, setting new records for attendance during each of
the past two years.
The 2005 show will also have the benefit of two weekends during
its nine day run.
"It's time for our show to grow to nine days," commented
Shayne Wilson, President of the Metro Atlanta Automobile Dealers
Association (MAADA). "The growth of the Atlanta show has been
amazing in its 22 years. It is not only the largest annual consumer
event at the Georgia World Congress Center, but also the largest
show of its kind in the Southeastern U.S."
The show is also the largest automotive event for the Metro Atlanta
dealers, featuring a wide variety of styles, including luxury vehicles,
economy cars, sports cars, exotics, limited production cars, concepts,
convertibles, MPV vans, light trucks and 4-wheel drive vehicles.

are snuffed out. Russel Crowbar, Britney Spheres, Sloop Dogg, Jessica
Simpleton, Jim Scary, Jay Chin-o, Halle Barely and You are on the

Atlanta Opera's FIDELIO @ Atlanta Civic Center 8p
Make it a Night at the Opera !
Join us for the Final Opera as the Atlanta Opera concludes its 2004-2005 25th
Aniversary Season
An Atlanta Opera Premiere with all-new sets and costumes!
The Atlanta Opera concludes its 25th Anniversary Season with...Beethoven's
only opera - FIDELIO.
Beethoven composed only one opera. It took him three tries and ten
years, but he made it count. His resulting Fidelio, an Atlanta Opera
premiere, remains a musically haunting monument to the composer's
passionate belief in human freedom and its ultimate power to vanquish
oppression. Though composed almost 200 years ago, the opera's message
is as fresh as this morning's headlines. Florestan is unjustly imprisoned
and faces almost certain death at the hands of the evil commander
Pizarro, except that Florestan's wife, Leonore, has disguised herself
as the jailer's assistant, Fidelio, and is determined to rescue
him. Her courage is rewarded and the opera ends with a magnificent,
rousing chorus celebrating the virtues of faith and love.

The

the Grand Rapids Rampage visit Philips Arena on Friday, April 15th
at 7:30 p.m. ET. With an 8-3 record, Georgia sits atop the National
Conference standings and Southern Division.
This season the Force are a perfect 5-0 at home and are currently
riding a team record seven game home winning streak going back to
last year. The home victory over the Austin Wranglers last week
ensured that Georgia will finish with a winning home record for
the first time in the team’s four year history. The eight
victories on the year also ties the club mark for most regular season
wins in a season (8-8 in 2003).
Grand Rapids will be Georgia’s only opponent this season hailing
from the Central Division. The Rampage come into the game owning
the League’s top rushing offense averaging 53.7 yards a game
on the ground. By contrasts, the Force boasts the AFL’s fourth
rated run defense only allowing 15.9 rushing yards per game.

Atlanta Wings Festival
@ Sweet Auburn
Get your taste buds ready and roll up those sleeves for what promises
to be a lip smackin’, finger lickin’ good weekend at
the Sweet Auburn Business Improvement Association’s inaugural
Atlanta Wings Festival on Auburn Avenue, April 16 & 17, 2005.
During the free event, residents and visitors can sample a variety
of chicken wing recipes from leading restaurants serving wings in
and around Atlanta. Whether hot & spicy, lemon pepper,
teriyaki, garlic & sage, barbecue, or more, there will be many
flavors to please the palate at this celebration of “all things
wings.”
But, why wings... on Auburn Avenue, you ask? Think about it:
Atlanta is home of the Falcons, Hawks and Thrashers—all winged
birds. It’s home base for the world’s busiest
airport and Delta Air Lines; and a major hub for Airtran.
Again, wings! Auburn Avenue is birthplace of the legendary
Royal Peacock, Atlanta’s first black night club, which during
its prime featured acclaimed national acts like Cab Calloway, Dizzy
Gillespie, Otis Redding and James Brown. And, just as Atlanta
rose on the wings of the Phoenix, Auburn Avenue is now in the midst
of a rebirth that will help the historic community rise and reclaim
its once prominent stature.
The Atlanta Wings Festival comes complete with live music, family
entertainment, an artist market and shopping in neighborhood establishments.
Attendees can sample wide varieties of wings using cost-saving coupon
books, which may be purchased in advance at the Sweet Auburn Curb
Market or during the festival. The $5 books buy 10 wings of
any variety from the participating event restaurants.
Visitors can also cast their votes during the festival for the “People’s
Choice” award for best tasting wings. The goodwill of the
Atlanta Wings Festival doesn’t stop with food. The event
offers guests a chance to also feed their souls by participating
in worthwhile community service projects. Teams of volunteers
will work along Auburn Avenue, cleaning and beautifying the historic
neighborhood. The
day-long effort on April 16 is coordinated for National Youth Service
Day in collaboration with Hands On Atlanta. Volunteer registration
begins on-site April 16 at 9am. For more details, contact
Hands On Atlanta at (404) 979-2800.
