Les Miserables in Concert
My sister and I used to LOVE singing songs from Les Miz. OK, we’d sing the entire musical…while sitting in our apartment. I wish she was here now for this particular Bowl concert with its all-star cast. This would be even better if it was a sing-a-long. Anyone wanna go?

Farmers’ Market and West 3rd Street Food Tasting Tour

Sixteen Candles Cemetery Screening
Who DIDN’T identify with poor, little Samantha Baker? Everyone has had their Jake Ryan one time or another. This has got to be one of John Hughes’ best if not THE best teen angst movie. And everyone was so young back then — Anthony Michael Hall, Joan and John Cusack, Molly Ringwald. BTW, what ever happened to the actor who played Jake?

• Gates at 7:30pm, film at new time of 8:30pm. $10 donation. Hollywood Forever Cemetery, 6000 Santa Monica Boulevard, Hollywood (map).

8th Annual Lucques All-American Rib Roundup
POST EDIT: SOLD OUT. Mmm, this Sunday at Lucques you’ll find a huge variety of ribs to chow down on. They’ve got St. Louis-style pork ribs, braised beef back ribs, spicy lamb spare ribs and some hot chicken wings thrown in there for good measure. To mix it up, sides include cole slaw, baked beans, greens and cornbread. Sounds like a good deal for $45. Make sure to wear pants with an elastic band.

• 1-10pm. $45. Lucques, 8474 Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles (map). (323) 655-6277.
