· Jonathan Safran Foer, Lewis Lapham, and other like-minded writers attend to Defend Democracy tonight at the Symphony Space by charging you lots of money to hear shit you've heard a million times before.
· Have a drink and enjoy some fine abortion comedy at Em And Lo's Sex Ed For Grownups, a pro-choice entertainment showcase (what the fuck?!) at the Bowery Poetry Club.
· Check out a week's worth of beats at the Flavorpill Lounge at the weeklong Fall for Dance festival. Just be sure to look alt-cool and disaffected.
· Throw fish and chips and pasty Brit-pop darlings Keane. They're too damn sensitive, anyhow. The boys invade Irving Plaza tonight with the French Kicks.
