ANI DIFRANCO: The blazer of tune trails, and the singer-songwriter behind Righteous Babe Records, rocks The Orpheum at 8PM. We've always liked her singular finger-picking style, and that she has been such a booster of Buffalo, her hometown. Cheers to that.
LEWIS BLACK: Hot-headed-ish? Well, quite. But it is all in the name of not suffering fools and speaking truth to power, et cetera. The "Daily Show" favorite is headed for Largo at the Coronet to talk about his new book "Me of Little Faith"; Book Soup presents. 8PM
FINAL NIGHT: "An Evening with Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin" starring -- wait for it -- Broadway stars Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin taps a toe at the Ahmanson. Then it is curtains. Would you want to miss two Tony winners in action? No. 8PM
