Friday
 · Employee of the Month is celebrating the comedy of Studio 60 by putting on "a sketch comedy show about a sketch comedy show in a drama about sketch comedy" at the Westside Eclectic theater. What this endlessly recursive ironic description actually means: They're performing the sketches from Studio 60, like "Krazy Khristians," "Commedia Dell'Arte," and "Science Schmience," finally breathing life into the half-realized creations that Aaron Sorkin briefly trots out each week to prove his characters actually work on a sketch show. These are fearless people.
· Music round-up: Tenacious D at the Gibson Amphitheatre; Midnight Movies at Spaceland; Matt Pond PA at the Roxy; the Slits at the Troubadour.
Saturday
 · More music: Hot Chip at the Henry Fonda; The Shys at On The Rox; Sean Lennon at the El Rey.
· ASSSSCAT welcomes Jello Biafra as their guest monologist at the UCB Theatre. Stick around until midnight to be treated to The Dirtiest Sketch in LA Contest, in which the winner will receive a prize of $3.07 for their contribution to filthy comedy.
Sunday
