Indeed unveils packed lineup for Whirlygig music festival during Art-A-Whirl
Art-A-Whirl's sprawling arts weekend across Northeast Minneapolis offers a lot more than open studios and the chance to purchase work from locally-based artists. Indeed Brewing has unveiled its plans for Whirlygig 2025, its annual three-day music festival that coincides with Art-A-Whirl.
The brewery's parking lot will feature a diverse bill of performances with rock, hip-hop, and jazz groups hitting the stage, all curated by Room3's Eli Awada. As usual, Whirlygig will be free to attend on all three days.
The lineup includes Early Eyes, Thomas Abban, Dilly Dally Alley, rising hip-hop artist Obi Original, Black Market Brass, the raw punk of Anita Velveeta, and Claire Doyle, as well as Javier Santiago headlining a jazz-forward Sunday lineup that also features Aby Wolf and Kavyesh Kaviraj.
In addition to the music, Indeed will have food trucks that include Red Cow, KCM Eggrolls, Chef Shack, and Pizzeria Lola, as well as beer and THC drinks.
Here's the complete lineup for Whirlygig.

OPINION: The Best Games for Pokémon Fans
Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors The next Pokémon game, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, is still a few months from releasing on the Switch and Switch 2, and as the biggest media franchise in the world, fans are very excited for its release. Pokémon Legends: Z-A is set to bring big changes for the series, including real-time battles for the first time, a greatly expanded version of Lumiose City from Pokémon X and Y, and the return of Mega Evolution, a fan favorite mechanic that's been absent for almost a decade. But Pokémon isn't the only creature-collection series in town, and decades of game development has seen quite a few worthy competitors. A combat scene in World of Final Fantasy featuring a host of familiar Final Fantasy characters and monsters. A combat scene in World of Final Fantasy featuring a host of familiar Final Fantasy characters and monsters. Square Enix While you wait for the release date of Pokémon Legends: Z-A, we put together a list of the best games for Pokémon fans. All of these games involve catching, taming, and raising creatures of some kind, although the gameplay itself is a lot more varied than you might think. World of Final Fantasy Of course Final Fantasy has a creature catcher spinoff game. The series is packed with a wide range of strange and wonderful creatures, so it was really only a matter of time before something like this popped up. World of Final Fantasy is a bit of a strange game, where captured monsters come in three different sizes, with smaller sizes being able to be stacked atop larger ones. There's a surprisingly deep layer of strategy to your stacks, and almost 250 creatures to tame and battle alongside. Throw in a cute story and some familiar characters, and you've got a pretty great game overall. Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Digimon has always been positioned as somewhat of a Pokémon competitor, but the two series are actually pretty different. The Digimon video game series is split up into multiple subseries, and one of those is the Digimon Story series, which as the name suggests, is much more focused on storytelling. It's much easier to wrap your head around than the World series, and Cyber Sleuth (plus its sequel Hacker's Memory) is the best of the bunch. There are some noticeable localization issues, but it's an absolute blast with heaps of monsters to collect and an absolutely wild story. Monster Hunter Stories 2 Monster Hunter is filled with big, ferocious beasties, so a game turning those into adorable little monsters sounds quite odd on the surface. But somehow, against all odds, Capcom and Marvelous pulled it off, not just once but twice. Monster Hunter Stories 2 is definitely one of the more traditional games on the list, but it's a very polished experience that's appropriate for all ages. Give it a chance, you're in for a treat. Cassette Beasts One of the more recent games on this list, Cassette Beasts is an indie game that takes everything you know and love about Pokémon and dials it all up to 11. It's got some gorgeous pixel art, retro aesthetics that are to die for, and some of the most bonkers move interactions you've ever seen in any game of this type. If you're looking for a creature catcher game that won't break the bank, Cassette Beasts is absolutely one to check out. Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince Gosh I love Dragon Quest, and the Monsters subseries has consistently been some of the best creature catcher games on the market. The Dark Prince is the most recent game in the series, and the most recent game on this list, and has you collecting and fusing monsters together to create amazing creations. Want a slime made out of an onion? You can do that, and it's amazing. The Dark Prince is also a companion game to Dragon Quest 4, and has connections to Dragon Quest 6, two of the best games in the series. It's a must-play for any Dragon Quest fan. Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is a game that was developed by legendary developer Level-5 with art and character design from the most prolific anime studio on earth, Studio Ghibli. Ultimately, the game is mostly about a young boy who isekais into a fantasy land and starts collecting silly little guys to battle with and alongside. The monsters in this game are honestly kind of ridiculous, but they have that Dragon Quest vibe that makes them adorable and ever so collectible. Plus, with art and character designs that look as good as this, you're in for a good time. Monster Sanctuary Up until this point, all of the games in this list have been fairly straightforward turn-based RPGs. Monster Sanctuary takes a wild divergence from this trend, offering not only turn-based RPG combat, but a full 2D metroidvania game on top of it. Imagine Super Metroid but instead of firing laser beams and ice missiles, when you run into an enemy, you start a three-on-three monster battle. It's a delightful idea and one that's executed tremendously well. It also does interesting things with evolutions, with monsters changing their fortes in battle rather than getting outright stronger like in most games. Buy it, play it, thank us later. Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance Okay, look, hear me out. Yes, Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, like most games in the series, is an action RPG, but it is, in the very strictest definition of the term, a creature catcher game. You collect creature parts by defeating them in combat, then use those parts to create monsters of your own, which then act as additional party members. Raising these monsters gives you access to new abilities, and makes them stronger allies too, so it's a net benefit for everyone. Dream Drop Distance – which is included int he Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue package – is also the best Kingdom Hearts game, but it might not be the best game to start with. You'd better play the whole series, just to be safe.

Kendra Wilkinson Reveals Biggest Regret From Her Playboy Mansion Years
Kendra Wilkinson Reveals Biggest Regret From Her Playboy Mansion Years originally appeared on Parade. Kendra Wilkinson rose to fame on the hit 2000s reality show The Girls Next Door, about Hugh Hefner and his "bunnies" living in the Playboy Mansion. While the show made it look like the Playboy Mansion was one giant funhouse, reports years later claimed it was actually a house of horrors. Wilkinson's former co-star Holly Madison has been vocal about the lasting trauma she endured during her time as Hefner's girlfriend, appearing in the explosive A&E docuseries Secrets of Playboy and writing a tell-all memoir, Down the Rabbit Hole. Now, Wilkinson has revealed her biggest regret from her time living in the Playboy Mansion. At a red carpet event, Wilkinson opened up in an interview with Fox News Digital. "The only thing I can say I regret in my life," she said, "is not starting my real estate career while I was living at the Playboy Mansion." The former reality star entered the real estate game during the pandemic, signing with The Agency, of Netflix's Buying Beverly Hills, in July 2020. She since left The Agency for Douglas Elliman, and even starred in a reality show about her career change, called Kendra Sells Hollywood. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 "What was I thinking?" Wilkinson continued during the interview. "Like, I mean, I was surrounded by everyone, every celebrity, every billionaire, and what was I thinking?" The old adage rings true: sometimes you don't know what you've got until it's gone. Wilkinson hasn't said much about her time at the Playboy Mansion, but she did reveal a few other regrets from her time there in a 2024 interview with People. 'Why did I have sex with an old man at that age? Why did I do that? Why did I go to the mansion in the first place? Why did I get boobs? Why did I bleach blonde my hair? Why did I?'

Diane Arbus, Everything Everywhere All at Once
Born to the wealthy Nemerov family in New York in 1923, the photographer Diane Arbus married young and got her start helping her husband, Allan, shoot ads for her family's department store. After ending the collaboration — and her marriage — she turned to a unique kind of candid portraiture, shooting insightful, evasive, disquieting photographs, both of people she met on the street and of more unusual people, like circus performers, whom she sought out. Her work got her magazine commissions and artistic acclaim, including a central role in the 1967 Museum of Modern Art show 'New Documents.' But she made relatively few exhibition-quality prints, sold only four copies of her now iconic portfolio 'A Box of Ten Photographs' — which includes 'Identical Twins, Roselle, N.J.' and a Jewish giant at home in the Bronx — and in 1971, at the age of 48, she took her own life. Arthur Lubow, author of a biography of Arbus, wrote in 2003 that she was 'fearless, tenacious, vulnerable,' and people opened up to her. But as she said herself in Artforum in 1971: 'A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.' So it's no surprise that 'Diane Arbus: Constellation,' the largest show of Arbus's startling and mesmerizing photographs ever mounted, was unnerving, or that my first reflex was to search for something familiar. Now at the Park Avenue Armory, the exhibition includes every black-and-white silver gelatin print that the photographer Neil Selkirk has made from Arbus's negatives since her death in 1971. Arbus's companion, Marvin Israel, chose Selkirk to help prepare a monograph in the wake of her suicide, and he remains the only person Arbus's estate has ever allowed to print her photographs. Over five and a half decades this has amounted to 454 of the eerie and obsessive photographs that made her so famous: the twins, triplets, children in masks, nudists, men with tattoos or pins through their cheeks, sword swallowers, dancing couples and awkward celebrities.
