· Village Voice senior art critic Jerry Saltz lectures about contemporary art and criticism at the Hammer Museum. It wouldn't kill you to ignore the Netflix queue for one night and get a little culture, you know.
· Movie critic/rock star Roger Ebert will sign his new book, The Great Movies II, at Vroman’s in Pasadena. The signing and discussion will be followed by a slide-show from Ebert's recent Bermuda vacation with onetime nemesis Vincent Gallo. OK, we made that last part up. Or did we?
· Concerts you could potentially attend tonight (subject to ticket availability and other factors): The Brian Jonestown Massacre plays Spaceland, The Revolution Smile makes music at the Knitting Factory, and Vietnam and the Comas will perform at Cinespace. A concert you may not attend under any circumstances: Aaron Carter with special guest Jordan Knight at the House of Blues.
