To Do: Gwen, Tom, Skool

· Monday night music round-up: The Plebz at the Viper Room; Great Northern at Silverlake Lounge; and in the evening's main homecoming event, Orange County legend Gwen Stefani returns to the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim.
· The cast of The Kid & I will be on hand for a benefit premiere and reception at Grauman's Chinese, giving you the opportunity to be in the same room as Tom Arnold, Joe Mantegna, Henry Winkler, and Shannon Elizabeth while raising money for charity. It's almost socially irresponsible not to indulge your normally destructive celeb-worshipping impulses.
· We can think of no better way to decompress from the stresses of holiday decompression than spraying up your bangs nice and crispy and giving yourself over to the hair metal goodness of Metal Skool at the Key Club. This weekend's emotional trauma will be a distant memory by the time The Skool gets through the second verse of "Living on a Prayer."
