Friday
 · The ArcLight once again schedules dueling Q & A's, making you choose between chatting with The Aristocrats director Paul Provenza and Hustle & Flow actress Taraji P. Henson following screening of their movies. (You have another shot at Provenza Saturday night if you opt for H&F tonight.)
· Free stuff: Composer and performer George Sarah, a string section and special guest artists hit the stage at California Plaza in Downtown Los Angeles. Yup, we said it was free.
Saturday
 · Music, Music: Teenage Fanclub at Knitting Factory, Devo at the House of Blues.
· Like to get boozed up on the deck of a yacht, but lack the funds necessary to acquire your own ship? The Yacht Affairs Cruise Club wine tasting sounds like the place for you.
Sunday
 · Because all cooking should be competitive: The Farmer's Market 11th Anniversary & Annual Chili Cook-Off at the Beverly Hills Farmers Market. [seventh item]
· Your quest to class it up once in a while could include a night of classical musical with the legendary Yo-Yo Ma at the Hollywood Bowl. You might want to nap off the chili for a couple of hours beforehand, though.
