Can't Miss It: Weekend Edition, Jan. 2-4
ONE MAN ARMY Rap gods be praised, One Be Lo is back in town! This man's sharp mind never fails to astound and inspire us. What we've said in the past: "He is a master lyricist, an assertive, seasoned spitter of rhyme and reason." On the bill with him are Spaceman (he slays every stage we've ever seen him on), Othello outta Portland repping Lightheaded, and Helladope, the latter of which has been getting some love from The Stranger recently.
9 p.m., Friday // Nectar Lounge // $10adv // 21+
ANXIOUS BRIDES unite: it's time for the annual Seattle Wedding Show, a nationally ranked weekend of chaos at the Convention Center where brides and the people who love them can explore the latest and greatest in wedding paraphernalia. For a dizzying glimpse into the show's offerings, check out the exhibitor list [pdf] or, God save us, the floor plan [pdf].
10 a.m - 5:30 p.m., Sat. & 10:30 a.m. - 5 p.m., Sun // Convention Center // $16 per day
ONCE MORE, GLEEFULLY THIS TIME: That's right, the Yale Glee Club is performing this weekend! Enjoy a wide variety of vocal musical entertainment, from spirituals to more snooty-type arrangements (Rachmaninoff was certainly not a slave in the cotton fields!) from the 60-voice touring choir. They'll probably sing some traditional Yale songs, too, which is sure to be even more delightful if you actually went to Yale.
7:30 p.m., Friday // Town Hall // $10
