Raquel Welch and boys play in "Bedazzled"; it's at The Egyptian on Friday, October 23rd.
"BEDAZZLED": Are we all a little bit in love with Dudley Moore? We'll say nearly all of us are, yes. Though we're also crazy for Peter Cook ("Princess Bride" fans, you know why). To see the two much-missed comedians, together, with Raquel Welch, in Carnaby-cool London, on the big screen, at The Aero, on a Friday night? It's a gift. And the bow on top: "Tom Jones" screens first at 7:30PM. Are we all a little bit in love with Albert Finney..?
HEART + THE BANGLES: There are so many things to like about the Wilson sisters, but we'll give special attention to the one-of-a-kind way Ann Wilson can take a three-letter word -- say "man" -- and turn it into 15 syllables. That is showmanship and voice mastery. And now all we want to do is sing "he's a magic ma-yan-an-an-aaaan" with Wilson-y power. The concert's at The Greek at 7:30PM and it shall rock.
BEN GIBBARD & JAY FARRAR: Two of the marquee-iest names in indie music are combining forces to salute writer Jack Kerouac. There's a new album -- "One Fast Move or I'm Gone: Kerouac's Big Sur" -- and a quartet of concerts played here and there with a focus on the project. This is one of those concerts. It's at El Rey and it is at 8PM. John Roderick joins.
