Events It's Happening Tonight!

BEST NUKE BAND—There's nothing exceptional about tonight's Radiation City show. It's just a great local band performing in a great local venue. The comfortable confines of Mississippi Studios are the perfect place to experience the band's upbeat, ethereal tunes. So simple, so nice. No shtick, no glitz—satisfaction guaranteed. SM
w/Maus Haus, the Ocean Floor; Mississippi Studios, 3939 N Mississippi, 9 pm, $10
LAMAS ALERT!—Tonight the B-Movie Bingo series features the cheese-tastic Gladiator Cop (1995), featuring Lorenzo Lamas (SQUEEEE!) as a beefcake detective who discovers he's Alexander the Great reincarnated. (What?!) Anyway, that means there will be lots of sword fighting, semi-nudity, male ponytails, and tons of competitive bingo fun! WSH
Hollywood Theatre, 4122 NE Sandy, 7:30 pm, $7
