What Time Is It There? Asia Society Sat., November 21, 5:00pm East 70s
Dir. Tsai Ming-liang (2001). The poet laureate of Tapei’s urban anomie integrates Paris into his particular planet—the sense of urban solitude and geographical dislocation has affinities to the melancholy globalism mapped out by directors like Wim Wenders and Krysztof... More>>
Brian Evenson Fontana's Sat., November 21, 9:00pm Lower East Side
Aimed to send shivers down your spine, Brian Evenson's new book Baby Leg begins, "Night after night, Kraus dreamt of a woman with a normal leg and a baby leg. In the dream, she clomped about on her adult-sized knee and the baby leg, wielding an axe, lurching." Shudder. Tonight, Evenson will be... More>>
Dances of Vice Festival Multiple venues Daily from Fri., November 20 until Sun., November 22 East Village
Are we the only ones that daydream of lavish revelry as the royal ruler Marie Antoinette glamorously once did? Not according to the hordes that attend the Victorian- and rococo-themed soirees that Dances of Vice extraordinarily puts together. And this month, they're stepping it up a notch. For... More>>
Voyage to Italy The Film Society of Lincoln Center Sat., November 21, 3:30pm
more dates/times 		West 60s
Dir. Roberto Rossellini (1953). This major work deals with the visit to Naples by an English couple (George Sanders and Ingrid Bergman). Bored and resentful of each other, their complacent attitudes are shaken by their contact with the Italian exuberance for life and death. Almost plotless,... More>>
Sonic Youth+Dinosaur Jr. Terminal 5 Sat., November 21, 8:00pm West 50s
Don't call The Eternal a comeback—they've been here for years. Mid-period fans are happy that they've gotten a hard sound again, even if it doesn't (thankfully) copy their supposed late '80s/early '90s prime. In any case, on stage, they've never been known for holding back the guitar... More>>
Land of Talk Mercury Lounge Sat., November 21, 8:30pm East Village
In a perfect world, Montreal three-piece Land of Talk would rule Canada's indie landscape with an iron fist. Yet their career remains a waltz around success—for every mammoth step forward the band takes (getting signed to Saddle Creek), sudden tragedy forces them to take a... More>>
Ellery Eskelin Quartet Cornelia Street Cafe Sat., November 21, 9:00pm
more dates/times 		West Village
Whether blowing tart and tempestuous or earthy and inviting, the tenor saxophonist has a sound that demands an emotional response from his listeners. And he hears things a bit different than most—hence the knotty individualism of his accordion/drums/reeds group. This foursome... More>>
The Feelies Maxwell's Sat., November 21, 9:30pm New Jersey
Ah, such a nice homecoming for these Jersey boys and girl. While they were a sensation at Battery Park last year opening for Sonic Youth, this is their real stomping ground and home turf (for decades now), where they've been known to perform multi-sets and encores. Hands down, this is the best... More>>
Blowfly+Anal Cunt Knitting Factory Sat., November 21, 10:30pm Williamsburg
Easily the most inspired booking of the week, the Knitting Factory brings together the twin totems of vulgarity, a double bill of swear-laden, fluid-soaked low-jinks that seems to exist only to annoy Tipper Gore. A legend to dirty rappers everywhere, Blowfly was doing triple-X soul parodies as... More>>
Devo The Fillmore at Irving Plaza Fri., November 20, 9:00pm
more dates/times 		East Village
New Wave legends and cultural anti-theorists Devo are celebrating their 35th anniversary with a pair of epic shows: Playing their taut landmark Q: Are We Not Men? tonight and their best-selling Freedom of Choice tomorrow. Who cares if pointless nostalgia trips are "Devo" or not; the... More>>
Ordinary Days Roundabout Underground Every week Saturday, Sunday from Sun., October 4 until Sun., December 13, 1:30pm
more dates/times 		West 40s
There are apparently eight million stories in the naked city, but in this new musical from writer-composer Adam Gwon, he aims to tell just four of them. The plot centers on a grad student who has lost the notes to her thesis. A flighty flyer distributor and a discontented couple may help her... More>>
Wolves at the Window 59E59 Every week Saturday from Sat., November 14 until Sun., December 6, 2:15pm
more dates/times 		East 50s
During this recession, it’s hard enough to keep the wolves from the door, but apparently they are trying to get in at the casements, too. Part of the Brits Off-Broadway Festival, this Arcola Theatre play, based on the short stories of Saki, reveals the lupine brutality that lurks just... More>>
Love Child New World Stages Every week Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Fri., October 23 until Sun., January 3, 8:00pm
more dates/times 		West 50s
Daniel Jenkins and Robert Stanton revive their two-man comedy, an adaptation of Euripides’ Ion and a tribute to the madness and disarray of theatermaking. When we saw it last year, we wrote, “The script’s a bit inane, but there’s great joy in watching Stanton and Jenkins... More>>
The Lily's Revenge HERE Arts Center Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., October 29 until Sun., November 22, 6:30pm Tribeca
Performance artist and playwright Taylor Mac's previous body of work could be most simplistically described as touching, rallying, and caked in glitter. But Mac's not one for simple. Add to the above puppets, flowers, Japanese Noh, "a million sequins," and more than 40 performers (and six... More>>
Looking at Music: Side 2 MoMA Daily from Wed., June 17 until Mon., November 30 West 50s
We know, we know—downtown's not what it used to be. But for those of us too young to remember the heyday of clubs like Max's Kansas City and CBGB, you won't likely get a better education on the good ol' days than at MOMA's Looking at Music: Side 2, an in-depth exhibit on the art and music... More>>
Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present Brooklyn Museum Daily from Fri., October 30 until Sun., January 31 Prospect Heights
Without photography, would Elvis and his gyrating hips have shocked America? Can you talk about Grace Jones without thinking of the Island Life cover? The photographers who collaborated with rock 'n' roll musicians injected the genre with glamour, grit, and sex appeal, and even today, one... More>>
Go Get Your Shinebox Brooklynite Gallery Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Sat., November 21 until Sat., December 19, 11:00am Brooklyn
The term "struggling artist" hasn't been so relevant as it is now. Brooklynite Gallery has invited more than 100 artist to take on the theme of today's suffering economic affairs in the their latest exhibition "Go Get Your Shinebox." More>>
