In a Nutshell

More than 200 years of United Kingdom tradition takes the stage with military marching and bagpipes

The Fine Print

Music is all around us—in the wind, the rain, and the weird sounds that children make. Listen to something that's actually been rehearsed with this GrouponLive deal to see Pipes and Drums of the Black Watch featuring the Band of the Scots Guards at the Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts. For $99, you get a family four-pack with four tickets for seating in rows E–X of sections 1–4 on Saturday, February 9, at 8 p.m. (up to a $238 value, including all fees). Doors open at 7 p.m.

With more than 200 years of military tradition informing its every step, the Black Watch honors the history of the United Kingdom while serving as an operational battalion in the British Army. Aided by the bagpipes of the Band of the Scots Guards, the regiment combines ceremonial marches with traditional music and a connoisseur’s eye for fuzzy hats. Included in the program are such classic anthems as “Amazing Grace,” “Bluebells of Scotland,” “Ode to Joy,” and “Rising of the Lark.”

Music Hall Center

Built in 1928, Music Hall Center dazzles patrons with an ornate art-deco façade and lush Spanish Renaissance interior. Elegant columns, glittering chandeliers, and vibrant geometric patterns create a palatial atmosphere in the lobby. The auditorium's intimately arranged velvet seats leave every viewer within 70 feet of the stage, eliminating the need for binoculars or drawn-out games of telephone describing the onstage action.

The Groupon Guide to: Typing Techniques

In grade schools, children are taught one way to type on a computer keyboard—with their hands and not at all with their tiny, perfectly suited for typing toes. Here are some other typing techniques not taught in America's learning rooms:

Hunt and Peck: One of the slower typing methods, it involves the typist "hunting" for each letter individually and then "pecking" the letter with a long cane.

Touch Typing: The same as the standard typing technique, but instead of touching the keyboard, let the keyboard touch you.

Fast Fingers: Standard typing technique, but a little bit faster.

Fancy Fingers: Pretty much the same as "fast fingers," but a little bit slower, and your fingers dance upon the keys like a dainty woman’s feet upon a wet dance floor.

No Fingers: Just throw a rock at the keyboard until you hit the key you want. If you end up breaking the keyboard, buy a new one and start over with a smaller rock.

I'm so proud of my son. He learned how to type with a cane.
