This is going to be a very short list because the highs (Halloween, Dodgers winning the World Series) and lows (the election) of the past few weeks have been a lot and I’m still trying to wrap my head around that.
Regardless, there is one live show that I 100% highly recommend and that’s Cadal at Slipper Clutch tonight. Cadal is a post-punk group from Chile (check out their music on Bandcamp) and they’re only playing two shows in the U.S. Info for tonight is on the list below.
For the city pop and future funk heads, Shibuya Starlight is back on Friday night at High Tide in Little Tokyo. And if French pop is your thing, check out Décadanse on Saturday night at the Grand Star.
As far as movie screenings go, I’m really intrigued by The Cathedral of New Emotions, which is playing at Philosophical Research Society on Saturday night. And I’ll always recommend seeing Grave of the Fireflies, but, bring tissues. Lots of tissues. I’m not kidding. There are still tickets available for the 8:40 p.m. show at Alamo Drafthouse on Monday night.
