The Shining at IFC

Friday the 13th is approaching and IFC wants you to do it up right by screening Stanley Kubricks The Shining.

Danny Torrence, the father, starts to experience cabin fever and turns to insanity as a result. The only thing that can save his wife and son from him is "The Shining".

Today Show Summer Concert Series: Train

Rockefeller Center

The Today Show will have holding its famous outdoor concert series, and this weekend Train will be playing. Come check out the San Francisco-based band, and relive your middle school moments by rocking out to "Drops of Jupiter".
