Los Angeles:
This weekend, K-ROQ DJ Rodney Bingenheimer becomes the 2330rd person to be immortalized on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Friday at 11:30, so stop by on your lunch hour if you can. [Link]
Comedian Bruce Vilanch (you'll recognize him via google image search, if not by name) is speaking this Saturday about his face in your face career and experience as a scriptwriter for the Academy Awards. Evidently, it'll put the F-U in Funny. For sure. [Link]
You can bet that when free tickets and excellent music are involved, there won't be a seat left in the house. But when you add Earlimart to the mix, things have been probably been sold out since the beginning of time. Here's hoping you can sneak in somehow? Or at least swing a way to hang with the hometown boys after the show. [Link]
The New York City and Chicago weekend event ideas are after the jump.
New York:
Why do we read women's memoirs? So we can meet them at books signings, of course. Author Debra Epstein makes the best of both worlds by giving a free lecture this weekend at the Brooklyn Public Library. Saturday at 4:00PM. (Intriguingly scheduled to follow another woman's 2:00 presentation of her own memoir.) [Link]
BCBG and designer denim sample sale? Get in line. FAST. It started on Thursday, so there's really no time to spare. (Especially if you want to be able to find all the important things in stock: you know, like the size that you wear.) [Link]
Chicago:
Goo Goo Dolls concerts are still selling out? Really? See for yourself Friday at the Rialto Square Theatre. I swear they won't let you buy one at the door. [Link]
Making good use of NBC's 'hiatus' from "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip", comedian D.L. Hughley is giving a performance at the Arie Theatre on Saturday night. Not having heard of the other two comedians he's performing with aside, it should be a really good show. [Link]
