>> After bitching about extreme lack of tickets to Friday’s sold out Arcade Fire show, our friends at Washingtonian Magazine alerted us to their ticket giveaway. Only one seat is up for grabs, you didn’t want to bring your girlfriend anyway, right? Contest ends Thursday at noon.
>> Tim Westergren, founder of Pandora Internet radio, hosts a meet up tonight at Be Bar. Open to listeners and non-listeners alike, guests can chat about the Internet Equality Act and the future of the fascinating Music Genome Project among other things. [1318 9th St NW, Free, 6:30 p.m.]
>> Don’t forget that tomorrow is the last day to register for DC Idol, the Capital’s own talent show benefiting the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Hosted by Grace Community Church and Arlington Cinema and Draft House, the event takes place on May 8. Simon, Paula and Randy won’t be there, but we’re crossing our fingers that more of D.C.’s singing wonks will perform for this worthy cause.
>> The Black Cat hosts a screening of the critically acclaimed 2002 film Horns and Halos. The movie “captures the unlikely connection of three men – an ex-con turned celebrity biographer, a janitor cum underground publisher, and U.S. President George W. Bush – whose paths to power and popularity become tangled in a controversial book.” [1811 14th St, NW, $5, 9 p.m.]
