About Tonight

2007_1113_abouttonight%282%29.jpg

>> Dr. Dremo's is closing in a matter of months, so take the opportunity to visit tonight for what looks to be an excellent installment of the Washington Psychotronic Film Society's regular oddball film screenings. Tonight's selection is Bugsy Malone, the totally bizarre but actually kind of great 1976 movie musical starring child actors Jodie Foster and Scott Baio as gangsters who shoot custard out of their guns instead of bullets. Somewhat creepily, all the songs on the soundtrack were actually performed by adults. The film actually won an Oscar for Best Musical Score. 8 p.m., $2 suggested donation.

>> Tickets are still available to see Deborah Harry, the former Blondie frontwoman, tonight at the 9:30 Club. Her latest and sixth solo album, Necessary Evil, came out last month. The 9:30 web site indicates she'll be "singing her hits," so don't worry about having to sit through only new songs without getting to hear "Call Me" and "Heart of Glass." Late show, $35, 10 p.m.

>> Moroccan guitarist Tarik Hilal leads some Moroccan and Palestinian musicians including darbouka player John-Robert Handal, saxophonist Joseph Duqmaq, pianist and vocalist Wissam Murad, and oud player Basel Zayed through a mixture of sounds including flamenco, jazz, and traditional middle eastern ones. 6 p.m., free at the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage.

>> Anne Elizabeth Moore, former editor of Punk Planet, will be at Red Onion Records & Books to read from and discuss Unmarketable: Brandalism, Copyfighting, Mocketing, and the Erosion of Integrity. 7 p.m.
