CLEANUP IN REACTOR B: Oh Hanford. In the '40s, Southeast Washington's Columbia Basin was a burgeoning industrial center, thanks to plutonium production as part of the Manhattan Project. Spoiler alert: There are future repercussions. As the winner of Best Film at last year's Local Sightings Film Festival, Grant Aaker and Josh Wallaert's documentary Arid Lands explores the many facets of the nuclear cleanup and the myriad players--Native Americans, farmers, developers, activists, fishermen, and scientists--in the community. The film plays at the NWFF through Thursday.

NEEEERRRRDDDDDSSSSS: Geeks Who Drink are playing pub trivia at the Blarney Stone tonight. Unlike most pub quizzes, this one is free to play, so whaddya got to lose? It's only trivia, so don't freak out.

BACK IN BLACK: Apparently AC/DC has a new album, Black Ice. As if anyone cares. The only reason why you go see a band like this--at the em-effing Tacoma Dome, of course--is to hear all the hits, not the sure-to-be lousy new songs. Especially at $89.50 a pop. That'll buy the band a whole lotta TNT, or dirty deeds done dirt cheap, or at a new schoolboy outfit for Angus Young. Show up early to tailgate and get your money's worth.
8 p.m. // Tacoma Dome // 2727 E D St, Tacoma // $89.50, all ages
