About Tonight

>> Did someone take your stapler again? Head over to the Arlington Cinema ’n’ Drafthouse’s Bi-Annual TPS Report Managers Meeting, better known as their Office Space screening and themed party. The festivities start at 7 p.m., with a trivia contest, Lumbergh impersonation contest, "O" face contest and a costume contest. $8 to get in, and if you go in costume you'll get a two-for-one admission coupon for an upcoming film.
>> Robbers on High Street have canceled their show tonight at DC9 due to the hospitalization of their lead singer, so you'd be doing locals the Zulu Pearls a really big solid by still showing up to support them as they play with The Epochs. Doors at 8:30 p.m., with tickets having dropped to $5. If you purchased tickets in advance and want a refund, you can get one only from the place of purchase.
>> Ed Hamilton, former D.C. resident and creator of the Living with Legends: Hotel Chelsea Blog, will be at Olsson's in Dupont Circle to discuss his latest book Legends of the Chelsea Hotel: Living with the Artists and Outlaws of New York's Rebel Mecca. 7 p.m. Check out Gothamist's interview with Hamilton back in November.
>> See the future of jazz tonight as the finest students from Oberlin College's notable jazz program perform at Twins. Call (202) 234-0072 for set time and cover information.
>> Anthony Lappé, author of the graphic novel Shooting War, is tonight's special guest at The Modernist Society at Bourbon in Adams Morgan. Suck down free drinks from 8 to 9 p.m., then discussion and questions from the audience with Lappé until 10 p.m., followed by soul, funk, and international future classics provided by DJs D-Mac and Neville Chamberlain.
