Friday
· Crash the 3rd Annual Indie Producer Awards Show at the WGA Theatre in Beverly Hills, hosted by Dave Foley. Use this as a warm-up; you don't want to cramp when you try to crash the main event on Sunday.
· Literary darling Lorrie Moore reads tonight at the UCLA Hammer Museum. She's pretty famous with the New Yorker set, but if you haven't heard of her, maybe you'd be better off sitting this one out—you wouldn't want short fiction snobs to stone you to death for confusing her work with Jhumpa Lahiri's.
· Hot Hot Heat plays the Roxy, but we refuse to indulge in any temperature related puns.
Saturday
· Normally, the rooftop parking lots at studios are strictly for suicide attempts and the procuring of illegal drugs, but Peddler on the Roof at Sunset Gower Studios seems to be some sort of legitimate flea market.
· White Out (with Thurston Moore, the indie rock world's arbiter of all things pure) plays Spaceland; Duran Duran continues their unironic comeback at Staples Center.
· Watch the Independent Spirit Awards on Bravo and catch a glimpse of Hollywood's rising talent before they direct a Jerry Bruckheimer movie.
Sunday
· Oscar Night finally arrives. Watch Jamie Foxx reach a state of ecstasy so pure that his body explodes and covers the A-list audience at the the Kodak Theatre in a hail of delicious Skittles. We don't even want to consider what might happen if he doesn't win.
· Shameless self-promotion: Did we mention that we're liveblogging the Oscars? Oh, we did? See you then!
