Can't Miss It: Monday
HIP WITH A SIDE OF HIP: sometimes you really don't want to like an indie band because they just seem too cool. With Tokyo Police Club, maybe you just need to deal with it. Tonight you can check out the Ontario natives being cool (and rocking, too) with Freelance Whales at Neumo's.
8:00 p.m. // Neumo's // $15
BIRTHDAY, BUKOWSKI STYLE: Joy! Fremont Place books throws a birthday shindig for the famed writer this evening at Red Door in Fremont. What sounds better than getting drunk and listening to readings of his poems and stories? Not much.
7:00 p.m. // Red Door // FREE
MOUNTAIN MAYHEM: it appears that mountain climbing is ripe with not only adventure, but mishaps and madness too. Jennifer Jordan's new book The Last Man on the Mountain: The Death of an American Adventurer on K2 chronicles a 1939 expedition that doesn't end well for the protagonist. She reads and signs tonight at Elliott Bay Book Company.
