in the event that you have any energy left after drinking your way through the madness of the ncaa semifinals…

• Philadelphia experimental rock Man Man ^[3] weave backcountry primitivism, a fondness for facial hair, and as many instruments as they can get their clangy hands on [mp3 ^[4]] into a celebrated live show. Tonight, with White Gold & Weirdlords [neumos ^[5]]
• Or perhaps you prefer your men dancing go-go style in an array of costumes? Crack reporting at the Stranger revealed [#] that this is exactly what’s in store at the Baltic Room, where Bang-Bang joins the parade of double-named contenders for your nightlife affections. Freddy King of Pants ^[6], of FrankenBoot fame, is among the DJs. [myspace ^[7]]
• Then again, if you still have any money left over from last week’s NPR pledge drive, you might be interested in spending somewhere in the neighborhood of thirty to seventy-five dollars to go to the historic Moore Theatre to hear Sarah Vowell tell quirky stories about history. [themoore ^[8]]
• If you happen to see people out and about in sci-fi costumes, blame it on the Guerilla Masquerade Party ^[9], which will be pulling a science-fiction double feature on the bars of Ballard. This seems perfectly timed to coincide with Emerald City Comic Con ^[10] which runs through the weekend and features an appearance by everyone’s favorite Wookie.
