QUEER AS...: Northwest Film Forum and Three Dollar Bill Cinema have gotten together for a new series running all April on Thursdays at the Forum: God Save the Queens, a four-week retrospective on British queer cinema. Tonight, it's , a 1964 biker movie about gay romance amongst working class Brits. Originally commissioned as a novel about a "Romeo and Romeo in the South London suburbs," the story was substantially tamed down for filming, but still violated the Hollywood Production Code (it was one of the earliest films to be screened in the U.S. despite that fact).

With today's release of her new album Circus, the narrative dictates that Britney is making a comeback. But with last weekend's MTV informercial and recent trainwreck live performances, we say she's still a hot tranny mess. Either way, it's just announced that Ms. Spears is heading to town next year: "Britney Spears will bring her highly anticipated The Circus Starring Britney Spears 2009 Tour to the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, WA on Thursday, April 9. The 27-city North American trek, her first arena tour in five years, follows hot on the heels of Spears’ long-awaited sixth studio album, Circus. Emmy Award-winning choreographer and director, Wade Robson, is helming the incredible tour production, which also features special guests The Pussycat Dolls." Squeeeeeee! Tickets go on sale this Saturday at 10 a.m. Prices start at $35.

In this week's Rolling Stone, the annual "Hot Issue" (and yes, the one with Britney on the cover), working at the Cha's Cha's burrito kitchen gets blurbed as a "Hot Rocker Job." Citing the "kitchen staff of insanely talented musicians moonlighting as line cooks," there are a couple quotes from a certain former employee/maybe bland Fleet Foxes frontman, along with a list of other groups associated with Bimbo's: Modest Mouse, Band of Horses, the Melvins, Hole, Minus the Bear, Pretty Girls Make Graves, and Murder City Devils. So now you know which bands gave you food poisoning.
