Minority Retort
Hell yes, it’s Minority Retort, the city’s premiere comedy night showcasing comedians of color. This month’s headliner, former Portlander Curtis Cook, returns from LA to treat audiences to his thoughtful and satisfyingly bleak comedy musings, which landed him a job as writer and editoralist for Comedy Central’s Jim Jefferies Show. Minority Retort is hosted by Jason Lamb, Julia Ramos and Neeraj Srinivasan. The Real Hyjinx, Katie Nguyen and Eugene’s Randy Mendez will also perform. JENNI MOORE

Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heaven's Door
As a subgenre, “Movies Based on TV Shows” isn’t the most reliably successful. For every Miami Vice (shut up, it’s fuckin’ good) there are like five of Car 54, Where Are You? But one of the best examples of a show making the leap is also one of its least mentioned—probably because the show was an anime that most Americans only saw if they (1) knew what the fuck Adult Swim was in 2001, and (2) were up late enough on Sunday nights to watch it. If they did, they saw Cowboy Bebop, arguably the finest anime series ever made, a laid-back explosion of style that demanded you acknowledge just how fucking cool it was. In less sure hands, this story of interstellar bounty hunters who reluctantly become something like a real family would be a tryhard melange of clichĂ©s. But through the eyes of director Shinichiro Watanabe, every ingredient (sci-fi, jazz, noir, screwball comedy, action, mystery, suspense, sitcom hijinks) is perfectly measured and blended with such surety that the result feels breezily effortless—at least, until the cumulative effect of the storytelling sneaks a breath-stealing gut punch into the final minutes. So went the series, so goes this movie. BOBBY ROBERTS

Pure Bathing Culture, King Who, Kacey Johansing
It’s been three years since Pure Bathing Culture released their last LP, Pray for Rain, but for Turntable Kitchen's Sounds Delicious series, the Portland band decided to record their own version of Hats, the classic 1989 record from Scottish duo the Blue Nile. Sarah Versprille and Daniel Hindman play off one another in recreating the depressing romanticism that gave the Blue Nile's artsy pop its extra kick, with a little help from Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard on the track "Saturday Night." Only 1,000 of copies of Hats are being pressed—be sure to grab one at the show, which doubles as an album release party for King Who’s new record Giant Eye. CERVANTE POPE

MusicfestNW Presents: In the Lot
Generally, spending your whole day in a parking lot doesn't exactly guarantee a good time. But this weekend is the exception that proves the rule, with Musicfest NW teaming up with Dr. Martens to host some great performances in Docs’ parking lot. Sunday’s got Twin Peak, Dude York, and more, but Saturday’s got the must-sees, with performances from Naked Giants, the Last Artful, Dodgr, and the inimitable Princess Nokia, whose pulsing beats and New York swagger do guarantee a good time. Maybe leave the Docs at home, though. It’s gonna be a billion degrees. ERIK HENRIKSEN

The Smashing Pumpkins, Metric
In 1993 and 1995, the Smashing Pumpkins unleashed two of the best albums of that decade: Dreamy and cruel, Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness found Billy Corgan's lilting vocals drifting over James Iha's lush guitars, D'arcy Wretzky's moody bass, and Jimmy Chamberlin's cranky drums. Even at the Pumpkins' peak, when they headlined Homerpalooza on The Simpsons, Corgan was ridiculous (glowering and capricious, he vowed Mellon Collie would be “The Wall for Generation X”), but one couldn't argue with their arena shows or B-sides. As flannel faded, they broke up and reunited ad infinitum, with Iha, Chamberlin, and more—though never Wretzky—orbiting Corgan's gleaming moon of a head. So much of this stuff still works (“Cherub Rock,” “Geek U.S.A.,” “Disarm,” “Tonight, Tonight,” “1979,” “Thirty-Three,” the patently preposterous, patently awesome “Bullet with Butterfly Wings”), but the Pumpkins' most lasting impact might be their influence on those who followed. (Years later, their rock-opera baroqueness and emo-kid lyrics would be sharpened and polished by My Chemical Romance.) For the “Shiny and Oh So Bright Tour" (heavy sigh), Corgan, Iha, and Chamberlin vow their setlist will pull from their first five albums; it might as well be called the “Give the Gen Xers What They Want Tour,” and I have zero complaints.

Prophets of Rage
Despite the whole rap rock thing being sullied by the likes of Limp Bizkit—who proved to be the final nail in the coffin—Rage Against the Machine still has the respect of many, since they actually had important things to say. Add decades of truth-telling from Public Enemy, and it’s best to pay attention. Prophets of Rage—members of RATM sans Zack de la Rocha, with Public Enemy’s Chuck D and DJ Lord, and B-Real from Cypress Hill—have formed to fight back against the racism, xenophobia, and sexism propagated by Trump and other GOP goons. If America has ever needed Prophets of Rage, whose performances are rallies against social and racial inequalities, it’s right now. If these Prophets connect with just a handful of people, consider this a good thing. MARK LORE
