Christopher Frizzelle: "A little Hempfest and a little camping up at Triangle Recreation Camp in Granite Falls. But if someone's never seen Angels in America onstage before, that's what they need to do this weekend."

David Schmader: "I plead the fifth. Actually, tonight I am going to see Tacocat and Haim at the Paramount. I am very excited."

Jen Graves: "After previewing the documentary Alive Inside for review next week, when it opens in Seattle, I'll just be listening to as much music as I possibly can, by every which avenue. Watch the trailer if you want an infusion of good."

Dave Segal: "Tonight I hope to see Get on Up, the James Brown biopic, because I love funk and (major understatement ahead) JB is a fascinating character. Saturday I’m going to the Crocodile to worsen my tinnitus in the presence of Japanese heavy-rock unit Boris and Master Musicians of Bukkake. Sunday I’ll probably be shaking my head to the constant EEEEEEE sound in my brain as a result of my poor life choice."

Paul Constant: "I'm looking forward to B-Movie Bingo tomorrow night at SIFF Cinema. A Portland comedy team called Wolf Choir is hosting a 1980s action movie called Samurai Cop, and before the film the audience will be given bingo cards with action movie cliches printed on them. In addition, the actor who played Samurai Cop, Matt Hannon, will answer questions after the film. Also, I got a copy of John Dean's new book The Nixon Defense in the mail this week, and I plan on giving that a hate-read this weekend. Nixon fascinates me, but I can't imagine how anyone could try to justify his actions. Yes, that's my idea of fun. Shut up."

Dan Savage: "I'm going to see Angels in America on Saturday night."
