a lot of things to do

J. Greenburg has changed the date for the Kabinet's screening of Celine and Julie go boating. Here's what he said:

Sorry for the late notice, but we've had to change this month's schedule a bit. We had planned on screening Jacques Rivette's New Wave classic CELINE AND JULIE GO BOATING at the end of the month...but instead we'll be showing it this Sunday, July 9th, starting at 8pm. I know this is a film that many of you were interested in seeing, so I hope this last-minute change won't prevent anyone from catching it. And if you weren't planning on attending...please take my advice and reconsider; it's a really remarkable film!- - - - - - - - - - -

Sunday, July 9th @ 8pm

Jacques Rivette’s CELINE AND JULIE GO BOATING(France, 1973)

Please don’t let the three-and-a-quarter hour running time scare you off: time flies when you’re having this much fun! And this madcap, everything-plus-the-kitchen sink fantasy is one of the most sprightly and delightfully goofy films ever made. A librarian with an interest in the occult and a nightclub magicienne strike up a friendship and discover a strange mansion where a tale of murder plays out over and over, day after day, until the duo can solve the mystery. Rivette evokes Henry James, Alice in Wonderland, To Catch a Thief, and dozens of other cinematic and literary touchpoints, but CELINE AND JULIE GO BOATING is nothing if not original – and rarely screened to boot. So don’t miss this chance to see what critic David Thompson called “the most important film since CITIZEN KANE!”

Also, Baby Grand are playing at Luna's tonight. My yoga teacher's band (she's the best!), Freeport are also playing. Here's a blurb

Friday night: Baby Grand will be playing at Luna's (16th at P? Q?) with Erik Hansen (from the Cassidys) and Freeport. It should be a good time. That place sounds great and is always fun. And as large as the band is getting these days and with how small the room is we may need to put the audience on stage and we'll play in the room!! It's cheap and great! Five bucks, 9:00pm.

There's competition with that, though, because that excellent and enigmatic band the Lilys is playing at fools. It's cool that this cult band is stopping in sac.

On saturday The Dulangs (who?), the megacools and sword awards (which is a local all-star band but right now I can't remember who is in it) are playing at on the y.

Tim White is in a second saturday group show at the Elliot Fouts gallery

And then there's the ye olde antique fair under thee freewaye on sunday.

***and Alkali Flats playing tomorrow, see comment for details
