MUSIC—It’s a K Records artist showdown tonight at Holocene, headlined by Portland’s the Shivas—fine purveyors of badass jangle pop. Also along for the ride, the long-awaited return of the musically varied Adrian Orange, and the Twin Peaks-esque solo guitar work of r.ariel. WM. STEVEN HUMPHREY
Holocene, 1001 SE Morrison, 8:30 pm, $6
FILM—You’ve already seen Do The Right Thing, Spike Lee’s 1989 classic juxtaposing Public Enemy, the sweetest opening dance sequence ever, and tension building into violence on the hottest day of the year—so you know why it’s worth seeing again. It’s part of the Hollywood’s new series on race with guest panelists, this one with filmmaker David Walker. MEGAN BURBANK
Hollywood Theatre, 4122 NE Sandy, 7:30 pm, $6-8
One great film I’ve seen several times.
Not that there still ain’t a lot of work to do, but do you think Spike ever imagined a black President in his lifetime when he made this film?
