-- The 2007 'Stache Bash: The regular world now knows what bears have known for a long time: mustaches are kinda cool. This even will show you just how cool they, in fact, are. Burlesque troupe Kitty Kitty Bang Bang and DJ Ross Hogg's hip hop, dancehall, roots reggae, and dub sounds intertwine with a night of 'stache championing. Tonight's bash will feature a mustache pageant, a beer foam retention test, a mustache haiku competition, and much more. Also, some of the proceeds go to charity. The hairy festivities start tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Rickshaw Stop; $10 (sliding scale).
-- Silent Night (Stellet Licht): Recipient of the Jury Prize at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival, Carlos Reygadas takes a simple tale of indiscretion (i.e., man choosing between two women) and creates a visually astounding piece of work, one that uses quite and natural performances. Reygadas will be in person tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Screening Room; $6-8.
-- Rubicon Sun: (Former?) graffiti artists David Ellis and Doze Green use "drawing, painting, sculpture, music, kinetic movement, sound, light, projection, and film" to bring the world of street art into a fancy-ish gallery. Check it out tonight at 7 p.m. at Fifty24SF Gallery; free.
-- Tubesteak Connection: (Note: We biffed and put this event in yesterday's "SFist Tonight," when in fact it's happening tonight. So... there you have it.) Mel Cheren -- "the Godfather of Disco" and West End Records founder, we're told -- died this past week. In his honor, Bus Station John will lace his DJ sets tonight with "a host of West End / Paradise Garage classics and rarities, as well as hi-nrg favorites from SF's own fabled Trocadero transfer." The music starts tonight at 10 p.m. Aunt Charlie's Lounge; $3.
