Naked Girls Reading. 

Carson Daly said it's "the best thing to happen to books since they were put on tape."
I would argue it's not the best thing to happen to books, but the worst thing to happen to naked girls. I mean think about it: you're with a girl, and she's naked. Nice. Then she says "wait! first, I'd like to read to you 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.'"

This seems like an idea that sounds good in theory, looks even better in picture, but would probably get boring and annoying after 10 minutes. Like girls.

Of course, if it weren't $15, I'd definitely. Now it's knocked down to a maybe.


@ The Stone. 8pm $10
Evan Parker, Tim Berne and Earl Howard
Evan Parker (soprano and tenor saxophones) Tim Berne (alto sax) Earl Howard (electronics)

Evan Parker has a residency here for the whole month, but the month is running out.

@BAM Cafe Live . 9pm. Free.
The Skye Steele Quartet

If there's one word I love to hear in a band name (besides 'Experience' or 'Traveling'), it's 'quartet.' Any 'tet will do, really. Or any number in the name that refers to how many members are in the band. Even if the number isn't accurate at all. The only word I like more is 'Chamber,' and I don't even know what that means. No, wait, the only word I like more is 'Naked.'

Skye Steele Quartet @ Sputnik-- Black is the Color

Skye Steele|MySpace Music Videos
(I love that the video cuts off at "that's the first track off our record, it's called 'Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair', it's actually an ancient...", exactly the place where the audience stops listening.)

@Galapagos . Cabaret Magyar. 10:30PM
(also November 20)
$15.00 at the door

*this looks great, but if you're going to go to one wacky Brooklyn cabaret this weekend, I'd go to the Floating Kabarette on Saturday for free. But only cause it's free. It may be free for a good reason.

A three-part series of fin-de-siècle cabarets with 21st-century spirit. New York and Hungarian artists, writers, and musicians take on a variety of Hungarian subjects you never knew were Hungarian: from Harry Houdini and Zsa Zsa Gabor to Cicciolina, Transylvania, and Ex-Lax. Foot juggling, mustache animations, Communist-era Hungarian commercials—everything you crave in a cabaret!

Featuring performances by:
Marianna Falusi
Sweet Soubrette
Adira Amram
Bekah Brunstetter
Julie Atlas Muz
Tanya Gagne
animation by Nina Frenkel & Stefany Anne Golberg

And your host Nick Jones!
