Get Out
THEATER: 12 Minutes Max is experimental theater at On the Boards with each artist given 12 minutes or less to do their thing. The Stranger got us excited for the artists the Vis-a-Vis Society in this show, but according to the OtB website they're out sick tonight. It looks like there are still plenty of upstanding acts in good health, however.
7pm // On The Boards // $7 available in the lobby one hour prior to the show
FILM: The Academy Awards are coming up and you're frantically trying to see everything nominated for Best Picture so can get a fighting chance at calling the Academy's shot -- or at least having something on which to base your vehement dissent. Best Picture is so middle brow, though. Go see the nominees for animated and live action short films at the Varsity.
7, 9pm // Varsity Theater
COMICS: The Love & Rockets Hernandezfest remains at the Fantagraphics Georgetown location. Check Flickr for some of the sights.
Until 8pm // Fantagraphics Bookstore and Gallery (1201 S. Vale St.) // free
MUSIC: Rob Crow records and performs music under about a dozen band names (Goblin Cock, Alpha Males, Heavy Vegetable, Optiganally Yours, Cthugha, etc), but most notably he's one half of Pinback. Tonight he's just Rob Crow.
8pm // Chop Suey // $10 all ages
