Get Out: Five Ideas for Your Weekend

We built this Get Out on rock and roll. And sausage and beer.

Prost at the Sausage and Beer Festival, cheer for your favorite bands at Pass Has Talent, sing along to Starship, treasure hunt for a good cause and get your face painted at an outdoor movie this weekend.

Our goal is to make the Get Out planner as reliable as possible, but keep in mind, some events change at the last minute. We advise calling ahead just in case.

When/Where: 8 p.m. this Saturday at the Morongo Casino, 49500 Seminole Dr., Cabazon

Why Go: No matter what incarnation Starship takes, the band still delivers the kind of songs you know all the words to and that bring the '80s back in a visceral way. Hear classics such as "We Built this City" and "Sara" at this live show. Those younger than 18 must be with an adult.
