I "love" how in one day I can go from a free day on Monday to being potentially booked from noonish to zomgoclock, but in addition to the afore-mentioned Scott Pilgrim outing (12:30pm lunch at Ball Square cafe, followed by the 2:15 showing at the Somerville-- lemme know if you want in on the planning) there's a friend's birthday party at 4, and then I find out about THIS at 8.

"Beowoulf: 1000 Years of Baggage: Digging into the roots of the original epic poem, this club-style SongPlay hearkens back to the raw and rowdy style of storytelling in the old Scandinavian mead halls- with a passion for fierce poetry and a pint of thick beer.

Monsters and professors collide in blood-soaked Scandinavia as this hefty poem is rescued from 1,000 years of analysis and transformed in a defiantly raucous dissertation on art and violence. With a 7-piece band including dueling trombones, bass clarinet, accordion and saw, Beowulf combines Weillian cabaret, 40's jazz harmony, indie rock, punk, electronica and Romantic lieder into a cacophonous swirl."


Especially at $15 per ticket, I don't think I'm allowed to not go see this. Anyone else interested?

In other news, I think Club Oberon may be becoming my favorite local theater.

That sounds awesome, but alas, I will still be out of town on Monday.

Also, you kind of suck at having unscheduled days off. :)

I am in! So Dan and I will join you for brunch and Pilgrim, then we go away? I guess? Then just me will join you for Beowulf.

Fuck year.

Pretty sure that if I don't go see Beowulf, I'll regret it. :D

Count me in. Think I can just buy my ticket at the door?

I don't know how likely they are to sell out. I bought mine online just in case.
