Friday
· Comedians Jen Kirkman, Jarrett Grode, Ron Zimmerman, and others read heartbreaking works of staggering fake genius from their fictional autobiographies for A Million Gazillion Quadrillion Little Pieces at the UCB. Then stick around for the Kosher Karnival All Jew Revue with hilarious Chosen People like Jill Soloway and Andy Blitz.
· Detroit's Electric Six, authors of the greatest songs about disco fires and gay bars we can think of, plays the Key Club. Or if you're truly daring, there's the good-time phone-in-the-face rock n' roll stylings of Russell Crowe and the Ordinary Fear of God at the House of Blues.
Saturday
· Potpourri of music choices: Goldfrapp at The Wiltern; Twilight Singers at The Scene; Oneida at Spaceland; Flogging Molly at the HOB Sunset Strip.
· Aquanet your hair, butter up your thighs to squeeze into those old leather pants, and light your codpiece on fire in preparation for the hair-metal musical extravaganza of Rock of Ages at the Ren Mar Studios in Hollywood.
Sunday
· We're not exactly sure how to describe The California EAR Unit's VIDEOCTAVE chamber music/film/video show at ALOUD, so read about it yourself. [via Cheapskatin' LA]
· The Sunday Comedy show at Room 5 lures NY-based stand-ups Todd Barry and Aziz Ansari to our fine city, a trip for which the East Coasters have prepared themselves by viewing Crash several times in hopes of lessening the culture shock to follow.
