To Do: Your Three-Day Goodbye To Summer Weekend

Friday
· Go East, young music-lover: Dead Meadow at the Echo, Bobby Bare Jr and Crooked Fingers at Spaceland.
· Jamie Kennedy, former host of the aptly named Jamie Kennedy Experiment and your favorite non-Rose McGowan cast member from Scream, hits the stage at the Hollywood Improv. Help him forget all about Malibu's Most Wanted. Don't be hatin'.
Saturday
· The LA Scavenger Hunt will have you running all over the city, imbibing dangerous level of alcohol, and liberally quoting lines from Midnight Madness. (FAGABEEFE?) The challenge ends at a warehouse after-party that will rock until the drugs stop working, featuring the musical stylings of 400 Blows and Wires on Fire. This is probably not a very hard sell.
· When Indie-rock snobbery and arty pretension collide: Thurston Moore performs at MOCA. You know, in a good way.
Sunday
· Sunset Junction just whet your appetite for this weekend's festival, ArthurFest, two days of hipster-damaged rock-n-roll festival goodness. Day one has Sonic Youth, Sleater Kinney, the Black Keys, and 15 other bands you've listened to through the fuzz on KXLU.
· For those of you that have passed out of the Sonic Youth demo, Brian Wilson plays the Hollywood Bowl.
Monday
· Day two of Arthurfest features crippling hangovers, Spoon, Yoko Ono, Cat Power, and about three hundred girls in gym shorts and cowboy boots.
· Don't you have a barbeque or something to go to? Call your friends, dude, they're totally partying without you.
