>> We’ve already said a ton of great things about rising local band Le Loup, so odds are good you’re already planning on heading over to the Rock and Roll Hotel tonight to check ’em out. Brightest Young Things has a fun interview with the recently-Hardly Art signed band over at their site. They open for Raleigh’s The Rosebuds, along with Bowerbirds. $10, doors at 8 p.m., music starts at 9.
>> Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Consulting Senior Curator for Film and Media Arts, John Hanhardt, continues his lecture series on the history of video art — with what we hear is an emphasis on its place in film history. 5 p.m. in the McEvoy Auditorium.
>> The Washington Mystics take on Kara Lawson and the Sacramento Monarchs tonight at 7:30 p.m.. In honor of Breast Health Awareness Night, the first 5,000 fans will each receive a pink tote bag. Tickets as cheap as $10 are available here.
