5 Things to do Today

OCTOBER 16, 2007

 

Vicente Fox: Former Mexican President Vicente Fox crosses the border to present his autobiography, “Revolution of Hope: The Life, Faith and Dreams of a Mexican President.” Be there as he (likely) reads the excerpt in which he calls President Bush “the cockiest guy I have ever met.” 8pm.
VROMAN’S BOOKSTORE 695 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena 91101. 626.449.5320; vromansbookstore.com.

Tuesday at Morry’s: Try out one of Morry’s $10 wine flights and get sucked in—just a few quick sips until you add a second or third round to your tab.
MORRY’S 5764 E Second St, Long Beach 90803. 562.433.0405; morrys.com.

Open Mic at NuArt: There are plenty of spots to troll for an open mic, but none as satisfying as NuArt, where you can grab a smoothie to wash down that amateur poetry. 6pm.
NUART CAFE 2741 E Fourth St, Long Beach 90814. 562.439.3089; myspace.com/nuartcafe.

City Council: Listen in as the city council decides where you can park your RV. 5pm.
LONG BEACH CITY COUNCIL City Hall, 333 W Ocean Blvd, Long Beach 90802. longbeach.gov.

Devon Williams and Oxbow: Snag a copy of Devon Williams’s just-about-sold-out L.A. Record release, then hit this surprisingly fitting two-room show—a pair of artists pinned to two ends of the same spectrum, both equally as likely to end up in their underwear.
KNITTING FACTORY 7021 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles 90028. 323.463.0204; knittingfactory.com.
