2. The photographer Stephen Shore talking about his new iBook series (this is a guy who started out making grids of “snapshots,” Warholesque, in the 1960s, whose retrospective opens today at the Henry), 7 pm, at the Henry. If things get slow, ask him about Flickr versus eBay photographs; he has great things to say. This from the show:

3. And then there was only silent lucidity. The Stranger Suggests:

Quiltsrÿche (QUILT SHOW) At the opening of Boo Davis’s show of “evil heavy-metal quilts,” DJs Skull & Bones will spin death metal. It’s sew or die: Thrash till the death, feeling the force deep inside. Violence and pain on the power of metal we thrive. Aural assault pounding your ears till they bleed. Unholy sound thrashes till death is our breed. (Poetry courtesy of Onslaught.) (All City Coffee, 125 Prefontaine Pl S, 652-8331. 6-10 pm, free.) JEN GRAVES

Stephen Shore is heavenly. That picture you have up doesn't do his work justice. Those other items, not so much for me.
