FILM
72-Hour Film Competition
You know how sometimes you watch a particularly crappy movie and you think to yourself, “Even I could make a better film than that!â€? Apparently, the people at Tacoma’s Grand Cinema agree with you, and that is why they gave 30 teams with a video camera and $50 a chance to write, shoot and screen a five-minute film at the Rialto Theater in Tacoma. Films will be screened, and prizes will be awarded at the “72-Hour Film Competition†at the Rialto tonight. Read full story here. â€" Sarah Kahne
[Rialto Theater, Friday, May 9, 7 p.m., $9-$11, 310 S. Ninth, Tacoma, 253.593.4474, www.grandcinema.com]
LOUNGE
Billy Joel Birthday Bash
I’ve seen one weekend warrior starts things off by mounting a Chopstix piano and running a hot pink feather boa back and forth between her legs to the sweet strains of the piano classic “I Touch Myself.†I have heard Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline†include the shouted refrain “Suck my balls!†after each repetition of the titular line during one night at Chopstix. Tonight, it’s all about Billy Joel at Chopstix.
The dueling piano bar hosts the first annual Billy Joel Birthday Bash, a holiday the bar intends to celebrate every year. A Billy Joel impersonator will hit the Tacoma Chopstix around 10 p.m. after visits at the bar’s sister clubs in Everett and Seattle earlier in the night. Expect “Piano Man,†“New York State of Mind,†“Scenes from an Italian Restaurant,†“Just the Way You Are.†“Movin' out.†“Only the Good Die Young,†“My Life.†“Big Shot†and many more, plus a commemorative glass and cake. â€" Suzy Stump
[Chopstix, 10 p.m., $7, 2702 Sixth Ave., Tacoma, 253.627.7555]
