SINGING IN THE RAIN: Iconic American songwriter Jimmy Webb will be playing at the Triple Door tonight along with local indie rock/pop singer, Sage Redman (who's voice could easily be compared to Regina Spektor's). An odd pairing? Possibly. But we're sure these two will have some pretty good tricks up their sleeve. Webb has worked with many of the greats in American music history including Frank Sinatra, Elvis, The Supremes, Richard Harris and more. Some of his unforgettable compositions include MacArthur Park (YEP. The one and only.), Wichita Lineman, By the Time I Get to Phoenix, and Galveston.

ADOPTION IRONY: What do you get when a gay married couple adopts a "child" to only find out that they are actually adopting a homophobic surly teenager? (We have a feeling that you guessed correctly.) The SIFF stand-out Patrick 1.5 details this exact situation after married couple Goran and Sven struggle to adopt the baby that Goren has always dreamed of fathering. Though this film sounds tightly wrapped up in a cutesy little package, we promise that you won't walk away feeling disappointed--the characters are absolutely lovely and even though the film is set in Sweden, you can't help but think about our own country's practices of prejudice when it comes to situations such as these.
