MUSIC—One thing about watching a surf rock show that nobody ever talks about: You want to imbibe as much frozen margarita as possible—enough to usher forth a bleak ice age of brain freeze, but still stay chill to the max. So when local beachy slackers Guantanamo Baywatch and party rockers Mean Jeans have a show scheduled at the slushy-slanging Bunk Bar? You take that shot. DVH

BOOKS—Lucky Chris Offutt, he inherited 400 pornography novels written by his dad (AKA the “King of 20th Century Smut”). Offut will be reading from his memoir, My Father, the Pornographer—the fascinating story of his pop’s writing career (which includes penning ghost and time-travel porn), and what must have been a very complicated father/son relationship.
