Friday
 · Friday night music situation: Beth Orton and Willy Mason at Avalon; Guster at The Roxy; Asobi Seksu at Spaceland; Taylor Hawkins and the Coattail Riders at the Viper Room.
· Filter Music Appreciation Night at the MOCA features a DJ set by Jimmy Tamborello of The Postal Service and a preview of the new Flaming Lips album. And booze. Make sure to RSVP, or spend your evening wandering downtown looking for Brad Renfro.
Saturday
 · It's A Sounds Eclectic Evening at the Gibson Amphitheatre, with Goldspot, Feist, Death Cab for Cutie, Sia, Ben Harper, Gomez, and an after-party with Z-Trip on the decks. And yes, we feel slightly ridiculous using the phrase "on the decks."
· Our pals at WriteGirl are having a reading for their budding teenage literary stars at Dutton's in Beverly Hills at 2 p.m. Take a break from the tournament and check it out.
Sunday
 · The Silver Lake Film Festival kicked off Thursday night, but it's running through next Friday, and you really aren't going to waste your Sunday moviegoing time on Larry The Cable Guy Presents Red State Pandering, are you? You know, unless you're high and wander into the wrong theater.
· We can't say for sure how Sunday will turn out, but we think it's feeling like a Minimalist Jukebox kind of day.
