TBA Tonight at TBA: A Buckminster Fuller Doc, and Two Bands You Have Heard Of

Posted by Alison Hallett on Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 1:59 PM

Music fans should take note of tonight's TBA programming: First off, two showings of the Sam Green-directed documentary The Love Song of R. Buckminster Fuller, which draws from Fuller's own papers and is accompanied by a live score from Yo La Tengo. Here's some footage, just waiting to be soundtracked:

There are only two showings of this one, tonight at 6:30 and 8:30 pm at Washington High, $25, more info here

Apparently last night's late-night show at the Works was pretty rocky (did you read Noah's writeup? "a two hour Google+ chat amongst five seemingly intoxicated friends made increasingly tedious with obscure inside jokes and failed audience participation"? Ouch). Tonight, though, things get back on track with a show from Portland's Parenthetical Girls, which promises to augment the band's already-theatrical stage show with plenty of guests and a dance piece. That's at Washington High, 10:30 pm, $7
