What else?
The Found Footage Festival is a one-of-a-kind event that compiles more than an hour's worth of footage from videos that were found at garage sales and thrift stores and in warehouses and dumpsters throughout the country. Curators Pickett and Prueher host each screening in-person and provide their unique observations and commentary on these found video obscurities. From the curiously-produced industrial training video to the forsaken home movie donated to Goodwill, the Found Footage Festival resurrects these forgotten treasures and serves them up in a lively celebration of all things found. This trailer for the new 2008 show was edited by Robert Austin.SHOW DETAILS

The I'm From Barcelona show at Masonic Temple May 1st was changed from 21+ to 18+ according to their myspace. Seemed to be an item of discussion in the comments here previously

Two great comedy options.
Greg Johnson's 3 Year Anniversary Featuring Jon Benjamin, Nick Kroll, John Oliver, Anthony Jeselnik, Todd Barry and more. Rififi. 8:30pm
or
Kumail Nanjiani: Unpronounceable. This is probably the last time Kumail will do this show ever so for those who haven't seen it, this is highly recommended. UCB Theater 8pm

I know this comment gets thrown around a lot, but Monotonix fucked KILLED IT last night. They certainly converted me into a believer. DO NOT MISS THEM.

I'm From Barcelona might have been the most fun I've had at any show so far this year.

The Jones Street Boys @ Pianos @ 12
[Atlantan dolls The Howlies on before them--haven't seem them live, but have heard good things.]
The Jones Street Boys win the hearts and souls of everyone at Housing Works last week... Don't miss them tonight--hear they're headed to the studio after this, so won't have shows for a while.
