L.A. ANGELS OF ANAHEIM VS. OAKLAND A’S @
Angel Stadium
It’s been a rough season for the Angels. Last
year, they were in the playoffs, but it doesn’t look so good for
them this year. The Oakland A’s will roll into town this week for
a series with the Angels. Playoffs or not, it’s still a great
experience in the ballpark— chowing down on a hotdog and
hopefully seeing the Angels lay a whopping on the A’s. Angel
Stadium is located at 2000 Gene Autry Way in Anaheim. For more info,
visit www.laangels.com

CASTING NATURE: MACHINE D'ARGENT @ Getty Center
The Machine d’ Argent is looked upon as a
masterpiece of 18th-century silver. Made by goldsmith Francois-Thomas
Germain, the piece shows the perfect combination of concept and
composition. In this exhibition at the Getty Center, the still life
sculpture will be put within the context of the many different types of
artistic productions (paintings, objects and prints) done in France at
that time. The Getty Center is located at 1200 Getty Center Drive
in Los Angeles. For more info, visit www.getty.edu

artists of our time, cartoonist Robert Crumb. In the first feature
length documentary by director Terry Zwigoff (Bad Santa), the film

YEAH YEAH YEAHS @ The Palladium
“Go Karen O Go, Go Karen O Go.” These
words most likely will be heard from the thousands of fans who will be
up to trot for the New York three piece. O, undoubtedly the finest
front woman in rock today (sorry Gwen) will shake the crowd up in a
frenzy with her spasmodic always-energetic stage presence. Also be on
the lookout for whatever crazy number she’ll be wearing. Screamo
artists The Blood Brothers open. Tickets are available via
Ticketmaster. The Palladium is located at 6215 Sunset Blvd., in
Hollywood. For more info, visit www.hollywoodpalladium.com

MIXTAPE! @ Bigfoot Lodge
I love mixtapes. Perfect for the long road trip or
for those long study sessions, just busting out that “English
Test Mix Vol.1” for sittings studying Shakespeare and such. For
mixtape! The perfect blend of noise rock, pop music, garage, twee,
post-punk and just sheer dance pleasure is for all. Add in $4
“pink drinks” and $3 draft beer and it’s all goood.
But sorry guys, its only for the ladies. Bigfoot Lodge is located at
3172 Los Feliz Blvd. in Los Angeles. For more info, visit www.bigfootlodge.com
Wednesday, Oct. 4
CAGEMATCH @ UCB Theatre
Cage matches are pretty scary. I’ve seen my
share of WWE type matches, and these matches hurt. Brawling in a steel
structure doesn’t always have to be punch combinations or body
slams, but just side splitting hilarity. At the UCB Theatre, Cage
Match, matches two teams, going head to head in an all out battle for
comic supremacy. The audience determines who the winner is via a secret
ballot and the victor of the previous match will face next week’s
group of gladiators. Its kind of like Family Feud but funnier and no
Richard Dawson. UCB Theatre is located at 5919 Franklin Ave in
Hollywood. For more info, visit www.ucbtheatre.com
