- Go to the myspace page of Her Space Holiday, listen to their covers of Wolf Parade and Buddy Holly (particularly the rockabilly ba-da-da of the latter, "Not Fade Away," which is adolescent and happy in a way that translates the exuberance of the original really well), and tell me you don't want to see them at Knitting Factory tonight.
- Today's the last day to catch Pierrot le fou at Film Forum's Godard's 60s series. You should catch it, because Pierrot le fou rules hard.

- British Sea Power can be pretty fey, what with the jangly guitars and boy's-own-adventure set of references, but in a fun way — and they can also get swirling and bipolar and darkly exciting. Their new record, Do You Like Rock Music?, strikes a fine balance, as you can see for yourself when they play at the Music Hall of Williamsburg tonight.
- MoMA is currently saluting the former sailor and painterly landscape filmmaker Peter Hutton. His recent At Sea is a monumental document, made over three years, of the construction, breaking, and first voyage of a container ship.
Happy mother's day. See you Monday.
