· Adultcon—The Adult Convention begins its two-day stint at the Convention Center, where adults from all walks of life can exchange information on the latest advancements in adulthood. (You may also happen to spot lots of mostly-naked chicks with giant, fake tits walking around. Ignore them.)
· Preferred seating audience members gasp in horror as Axl Rose takes to the stage at KROQ's Inland Invasion tour, then are promptly brought to their knees as he welcomes them to the Hyundai Pavilion jungle. With Alice In Chains, Muse, and more.
Sunday
· Sunday Night Music: Massive Attack with TV on the Radio are at the Hollywood Bowl, De La Soul, Digital Underground,Young MC and others perform at the LA Coliseum for Nike Run Hit Wonder, and DJ Shadow is the Avalon.
· At the Steve Allen Theater, Before They Were Giants imagines a fictional encounter in the summer of 1974, when Francis Ford Coppola, Brian DePalma, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg spent a weekend together in a Malibu beachhouse (and passed around Sissy Spacek like a hash pipe).
