Get Out

This is the all-geek edition of Get Out. If you're a normal person with friends and fully-functional social skills you may want to stay in this first Monday in December.

MUSIC: If you, like Seattlest, can't pry your earbuds out with a crobar when Joanna Newsom's Ys is playing you should probably check her show tonight. She sounds like Bjork and Kate Bush's lovechild and she looks like an elf. And she plays the harp.

8pm // The Showbox // $15

SPELLING: First Monday of the month means it's time to go demonstrate your command of the most useless of the Language Arts: spelling. It's a bee for adults, but if you've spent more than ten minutes on the site you know it's not an event for Seattlest to participate in. We're strictly spectators here.

7pm // Rebar // $5

FILM: Try saying any line from Monty Python and the Holy Grail in your coolest, most detached voice. "Bring out your dead." "Just a flesh wound." "You must spank her well, and after you are done with her, you may deal with her as you like... and then... spank me." "You must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest... WITH... A HERRING! " "You don't frighten us with your silly knees-bent running around advancing behavior! " It doesn't work. You end up just wanting to beat yourself up.

7:10pm or 9:20pm // The Varsity // $8.50

TECH: And the masterpiece of today's geeky events, the glue which ties them all together (the Perl, if you will), we present today's MySQL users group meetup. Go and discuss open source database design.

7pm // undisclosed location // FREE
