To Do: Your Emmy Weekend

Friday:
· Beck's doing a last-minute surprise show at the El Rey. (The password is hellyes. Thank you, Ambitious Outsiders.) For those of you who still get a little too creeped out about Mr. Hansen's Scientology ties, Paul Weller is at the Wiltern.
· Maybe it's too late to get tickets, but Charlie Kaufman's Theater of the New Ear is finishing up its brief run at UCLA. If you can't get in, head home and watch Eternal Sunshine while listening to your iPod.
Saturday
· Emmy's Eve music round-up: Tori Amos at the Greek; Midnight Movies at MOCA; Michael Penn at the Troubadour; Arcade Fire, Bloc Party and Beck at the Glen Helen Pavilion as part of the KROQ Inland Invasion.
· Cinemaphiles will flock to the Egyptian and tear each other limb from limb over the rare delights offered at the American Cinematheque Movie Book, Poster & Memorabilia sale. Pack a flack vest and a stun gun.
Sunday
· Hollywood's Second Biggest Night, If You Don't Count The Golden Globes thrills and amazes the world's boob-tube worshippers with the 57th Annual Emmy Awards. As is our sad, sad custom, Defamer will be liveblogging the festivities from the West Coast feed (unless some travel plans are delayed). Tune in to this space at 8pm PST and see how many envelopes are opened before we're too drunk to type.
