Saturday.... in the park... wish it were the Fourth of July! (That's the Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra performing the Chicago classic above). Here's your events for today:

Aaieeeee!! Just when you thought the Another Hole In The Head Indiefest horror film fest was over and it was safe to go back outside..... NO!!! Local stand-up splatter comics the Primitive Screwheads are presenting their blood-soaked Night of the Living Dead show, that both mocks -- and fears! -- the zombies stalking our land. $21, Doors at 7, show at 8, at the Hole in the Head Playhouse at 1333 Indiana (x 25th, in Dogpatch). Show runs through Saturday. And be warned: do not wear your nice clothes!

Rockin like Dokken -- what's on tap? Today: Did you know the SF Public Library sponsors film events? Tonight's screening is the film "Mission Movie," which follows a group of neighbors through everyone's favorite neighborhood as dot-com gentrification starts to settle in. Oooh, we hope Nestor Makno makes a cameo! FIlm starts at 6, in the auditorium of the Main Library. Thursday: You can either check out Tuvan throat singers at 7 p.m. at the Asian Art Museum -- or ululate with the candidates for city assessor-recorder at the League of Women Voters-sponsored debate (ladies, the word "calendar" is misspelled on your site). Maybe Ron Chun will bring his ermine robes and crown! Debate starts at 7 at the LGBT Center at 1800 Market. And TGI Friday: As part of the Bay Area Now series, the Yerba Buena Center presents Under The Radar 1, which sounds like it's going to be an underground cabaret -- female faux drag queens (one of whom used to be our yoga teacher!), acrobats, hip-hoppers Felonius, a women's toy instrument ensemble, and Lynne Breedlove of Tribe 8 (among many others) will be performing. Yow! 8 pm at the YBCA, $20. Picture of drag artist Glamamour off the YBCA website

Is it wrong that the governor is increasingly reminding us of the two meathead jock bullies from , always delightedly pushing little guys around and pissing everybody off? Maybe when he gets trounced in the next gubernatorial election, California will muse, "We love our defeated gay ex-governor." Or not.

We need to come up with a new word to describe the tasteless, fabulous, trashy, glamorous style of the Tenderloin. It's not just a slummy neighborhood; it's a slummy neighborhood with a can-do spirit and discerning palette. And one of its heroines is Tenderloinish drag star Juanita More, who, along with three hot Moreboys and the adorable Mike Albo, performed for an adoring crowd at The LGBT Center on Tuesday night. The evening, the last of the Queer Cultural Center's series of Trash Talkin' Tuesdays, started strong with Juanita's Moreboys reading harlequin-style smut, moved on to a dazzling song and dance by The Lady Herself, and then finished with a gut-busting performance/reading by Mike Albo from his new book, . By the end of the night, the audience could barely breathe though their laughter -- aren't you sorry you missed it? Lucky thing Mike's going to be performing again, tonight, at 7pm at A Clean Well-Lighted Place For Books. If you don't go, we can't be friends anymore.
