Can't Miss It: Wednesday
EARTH DAY: The UW's Green Coalition invites you out to the campus today for some live music, a gallery of environmental art, a zero-emissions electric car show, a social on the Lake Washington waterfront, and a presentation about sustainable business practices from Jerry Heinlen of Yakima Products to be followed by the movie The Eleventh Hour. Don't worry--there's more earthy doings on tap if you can't make that.
All day // UW campus // FREE
THE DADA FLU: Over at Town Hall, choose between a talk on influenza and immunology (which is not subtitled "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Pandemic") or writer and NPR commentator Andrei Codrescu reading from his "impractical handbook" for modern living, The Posthuman Dada Guide. This one is subtitled: "Tzara and Lenin play chess," is arranged alphabetically, and comes with the warning, "It is not advisable, nor was it ever, to lead a Dada life."
7:30 p.m. // Town Hall, Eighth & Seneca // Tickets: $5
ALT-GLAM ROCK: What can be said about The Killers that hasn't been said? What can be read about The Killers that hasn't been read? "Supersize, sparkly and over-the-top," says RS. "Histrionic Vegas rockers," sighs Pitchfork. If you like your bubble gum to pop, The Killers come through.
8 p.m. // WaMu Theater, 800 Occidental Avenue South // Ticketmaster: $33 and up
