One Ticket to See Candlebox at The Fillmore Charlotte on April 13 at 8 p.m. (Up to $25 Value)
Without music, concerts wouldn’t exist and “funk” would just be the smell emanating from an old sock filled with corn. Lend an ear to this GrouponLive deal to see Candlebox at The Fillmore Charlotte. For , you get one advanced presale general-admission ticket for Friday, April 13, at 8 p.m. (up to a value, including all fees). Doors open at 7 p.m.
With a brand-new album in the hatch and musical muscles bulging, the platinum-selling Seattle outfit Candlebox rocks out The Fillmore on its spring tour. The band first made radio waves in the early ’90s with breakout hits “Far Behind” and “You,” which stayed in rotation on MTV like an overzealous Wheel of Fortune spin. The group has since persevered as a vessel of the rock ‘n’ roll spirit, rising above the grunge-rock label initially applied to it by coloring its tunes with genres such as blues and jazz. Blending time-honored chart-toppers with tracks from the upcoming Love Stories and Other Musings, Candlebox burns like a box with a candle inside in a live performance fit to thrill fresh faces and longtime fans alike.
Modeled after the legendary San Francisco venue of the same name, The Fillmore encourages spirited sock sliding with its red-oak floors and rapid ceiling swinging with chandeliers throughout. Stadium-style tiers ensure optimal sight lines for general-admission audiences, allowing them to fully make out the meticulous shredding of every guitar solo and throaty belting of each chorus.

The exhibit juxtaposes healthy bodies against those suffering from disease and malfunction, demonstrating the advantages of healthy living and the fragility of the human form.

Mad Monster Party
Darth Vader mingles with the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Bikini-clad contestants strut in front of audiences as arachnids, reptiles, and insects lurk behind glass cages. The sleek, modern interior of the Blake Hotel bears witness to these happenings during the three days of the annual Mad Monster Party. The convention presents a family-friendly celebration of horror films through celebrity guests, special events, vendors, and screenings.
Meet and greets let attendees shake hands and trade self-autographed headshots with storied sci-fi and horror actors such as Rutger Hauer, Linda Blair, and Brad Dourif alongside other celebrities such as Marky Ramone and Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley. Screenings include the director’s cut of Nightbreed and other cult films, paired with horror-themed twists on speed dating and karaoke. A monster-mask-making competition tests artistic prowess, and live music and displays of silver-screen vehicles such as the ’58 Plymouth Fury from Christine and the Duel truck can frighten serial jaywalkers into rehabilitation. Mad Monster Party hosts many of its events at the 100-year-old Haunted Mill, which also thrills weekend guests with full-run tours comprised of 40 live actors and special effects.

Birkdale Golf Club
Designed by golf legend Arnold Palmer, Birkdale Golf Club’s course transforms natural beauty into challenging obstacles, with 200 acres of rolling hills intersected by streams and framed by mature pines. The course’s bermuda fairways lie beyond elevation changes that give way to greenscapes festooned with ponds and deep, stone-lined bunkers that test players to use every club in their bags before desperately reaching for the oversized soup ladle. Once approach shots find the green, golfers must putt precisely atop the firm and true crenshaw bentgrass greens.
Birkdale Golf Club pampers players before and after rounds with a practice range and onsite tavern trimmed with rich wood hues and green leather barstools. The club also staffs a team of PGA pro instructors who school pupils in the arts of swinging and scorecard penmanship with private lessons and group clinics.
Course at a Glance:
- Par 72
- Four sets of tees
- Length of 7,013 yards from back tees
- Course rating of 74.3 from back tees
- Slope rating of 138 from back tees

Prosciutto’s Pizzeria & Pub
Prosciutto’s Pizzeria & Pub hosts a menu of New York–style pizza and Italian fare that earned the establishment Best Pizza and Best Italian Food from Citysearch in 2010. To complement the traditional pastas, white pizzas, and pies slathered in daily-made tomato sauce, a lengthy beer and wine list features craft beers, imported brews, and a wealth of red and white wines.
The family-friendly pub and pizzeria is divided in two: The kids side with video games and toys has seceded from an adult section that houses a nonsmoking bar lit by dangling icicle lights. Sports-casting TVs and athletic paraphernalia keep the vibe sporty for when the athletes return to claim their jerseys and balls. Thursday nights host cornhole tournaments outdoors on the patio, and live music energizes the air on Friday and Saturday nights.

At Day Break Massage, a team of relaxation experts invites guests to unload their day-to-day stresses with soothing spa services that assuage soreness and foster radiant skin. Aestheticians perform a complimentary skin analysis before rejuvenating visages with organic, vitamin-rich facials as noses feast on aromatherapy scents. The treatment coddles kissers with a gentle massage that re-energizes facial muscles and jaw batteries. Two nourishing masks—the first of which exfoliates dead skin cells and the second of which cleanses and hydrates skin—relax the face as effectively as squeezing a stress ball between the eyebrows.
Éminence Organics and Biotone products infuse body wraps with natural botanicals, tea extracts, and the wrapping advice of off-season elves. The blueberry-soy wrap wields bilberry-leaf extract to help flush away toxins and boost the metabolism, and the Biotone firmi-sea-body mud wrap firms and tones skin with mineral-rich algae, seaweed, and mud. During the therapeutic massage, Swedish and deep-tissue strokes stimulate circulation and penetrate the medieval iron pajamas that shield deeply embedded tension.
