Even though the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra won't allow regular ol' dogs to its performances, it will allow regular ol' you. Now, don't feel bad about the fact that the only time you've been to Powell Hall (718 North Grand Boulevard) was on that school field trip, and that your idea of a classy night is putting the pizza on a plate before eating it (instead of leaving it in the box). You deserve to hear the symphony play Debussy's Printemps (that's how the French say "spring")! You have the right to perform a little dance of seduction to Dutilleux's Timbres, espaces, mouvement! After all, that last one is based on that Starry Night poster you love so much! So head down to Powell tonight for some seven18club fun — this group encourages just this kind of behavior. Call 314-534-1700 or visit www.718club.com to purchase tickets ($20), and show up for cocktails on the Grand Tier level at 7 p.m. The concert starts at 8 p.m.
