1. In the 1990s Olympians were knee deep in a D.I.Y. music revolution, running between house concerts and packing it in anytime indie-metal band KARP found a stage. Short for Kill All Redneck Pricks, KARP anchored the other end of the K Records roster - the loud, impenitent high-energy end. By the end of the '90s, like many of the Olympia venues of the time, KARP faded to black. After 4 1/2 years of collecting archival footage - and conducting interviews with Calvin Johnson of K Records, Justin Trosper of Unwound, Kathleen Hanna of Bikini Kill and others - Brooklyn filmmaker William E. Badgley has managed to capture the rise and fall of the raucous band in his film, Kill All Redneck Pricks: A documentary about a band called KARP. The film documents - in a rough-and-tumble style - the story of the Olympia sludge band and its exposure to drugs, demons and bad luck. Tonight at 9:30 p.m. catch a free screening of the KARP documentary on King Solomon's Reef's new big ass projector screen ... with director Badgley drinking next to you.

2. It's Tuesday, which means The Grand Cinema busts out another special film gem. Today at 2:15 and 8:05 p.m. the independent film house will screen Starlet, the story of an unlikely friendship between 21 year-old Jane and the elderly Sadie after Jane discovers a hidden stash of money inside an object at Sadie's yard sale.

3. You’re feeling pretty down about your failed Oscars predictions. But, hark! dear knowitall. Your shot at redemption and encyclopedic esteem lies before you at The Hub's Trivia Night. Every Tuesday from 6-8 p.m. the Tacoma Stadium District restaurant hosts two rounds of trivia with$100 in cash prizes.

4. Lyda Kuth and Kent Christman were enrolled at The Evergreen State College in the '70s. Nearly a decade later, they crossed paths in Boston and later married. Their relationship, and the universal uncertainties of finding and staying in love, is the subject of Kuth’s first feature film, Love and Other Anxieties, which will screen at 6:30 p.m. at The Evegreen State College. Kuth will answer questions after the screening.

5. The Unknown Relatives play songs that sound like dead ringers for songs you'd find hidden in one of those Nuggets compilations of long-lost '60s garage gems. It's all bopping guitar and bouncy rhythms, with cute little stop-start dynamics that pull you in and make you oddly invested in a song that's just a little over a minute and a half long.Check the band out with The Matildas and Pacific Pride at 10 p.m. inside Le Voyeur in Olympia.
