SUNDAY, FEB. 6, 2011 >>>
We're practically counting down the hours until the Super Bowl kickoff, but not for the obvious reasons of gorging on bowls of clam dip and getting pie-eyed on cheap beer. Nope, we love Super Bowl Sunday because while folks are cloistered away screaming at their TV sets, the South Sound is the Weekly Volcano's oyster. Instead of watching a bunch of galumphing dudes in oversize shoulder pads, we raise Cain all around the South Sound during the big game, and no one is around to see the damage.
1. Midwestern lo-fi popsters Sleeping In The Aviary perform at 9 p.m. in Le Voyeur's music room.
2. The Midwest comes to the Pacific Northwest when the Oly Rollers Cosa Nostra Donnas take on the roller derby ladies of Motor City, the Detroit Derby Girls travel team at 10 a.m. at Skateland in Olympia.
3. To find the great American folk dance, you don't need to travel to some dark mountain hollow or backwoods firehouse. Just head for the heart of downtown Olympia. An all-ages square dance will go hoedown between 1-4 p.m. at The Loft on Cherry to raise funds for the Oly Old Time Fest. Dance music will be provided by Seattle's The Onlies. All the dances will be taught by local callers Billie Burlock, Anne Marie Schaefer, and Maggie Neatherlin. The Grizzle Grazzle Tune Snugglers will get you struttin' your stuff in a cakewalk. And, making their debut performance will be The Bowpullers.
4. Prepare to be shaken at 2 p.m. inside the Capitol Theater during the special screening of END:CIV, followed by what's sure to be an insightful and poignant question and answer period with Director Franklin Lopez. Based (at least in part) on Derrick Jensen's Endgame, according to pre-event promotions END:CIV asks, "If your homeland was invaded by aliens who cut down the forests, poisoned the water and air, and contaminated the food supply, would you resist?" Well, would you?
5. Tacoma Little Theatre's 2 p.m. production of Frost/Nixon will be suitably sparse. As with the interviews themselves, the centerpiece throughout the bulk of the show will be simply a pair of chairs set up for a television interview. In lieu of a backdrop there will be a series of screens which project, in turns, actual news clips and a live feed of the interview conducted on stage. Read our full review of the show here.
