Roman Orgy at Seattle Art Museum
Seattle Art Museum says that its 35-hour marathon concluding the Louvre's Roman art show will include gladiators, which sounds like a recipe for lameness that could reach Renaissance faire levels. It could be ironic-good. Or, if you're in the market for regular-good, there's the promise of simply being at the museum with Augustus and double-Elvis at 3:00 a.m.—and admission will be half off during the wee hours. (Seattle Art Museum, 1300 First Ave, 625-8900. Sat 10 am–Sun 9 pm, $20/$10 from 2–7 am.)

Natalie Portman's Shaved Head at Vera Project
Tonight's show is a welcome back after a six-month hiatus for Natalie Portman's Shaved Head, and in advance of their debut album, Glistening Pleasure, due this summer. The young band members are a little older, their moniker is a little more dated, and their frivolous electro-pop candies—imagine an innocuously juvenile LCD Soundsystem—are a little more glistening. Portland keytar wizard Copy opens, along with Port Townsend's hugely promising teenage rock trio New Faces. (Vera Project, Seattle Center, 956-8372. 7:30 pm, $8/$9, all ages.)

God, the Slog is boring today. Seems like it's just me and the dust bunnies.
Hey, I resent that. I'm not a dust bunny.
Sorry. The sad fact remains, however, that apparently even Mr. Poe has better things to do on Saturday than troll the Slog.
Yeah, classical history is like so lame and for the nerds, dude.
Yeah, classical history is like so lame and totally for the nerds dude!
Yeah, and double posts are like so lame.
After going to SAM three times in the last month to see the Roman exhibit, we finally just got a yearlong membership for our family. It's great to get back to touring the museum again after all these years...
God, Peter, you are so fucking BORING. I'll take a blow-job from PopTart every day of the week before I pay attention to your lame-o lame-o bullshit.
Well, ummm, thank you I think.
@8, sorry for boring you with my tedious on-topic reaction to the art post -- I guess I'll use this as an excuse to stop posting here, though. Good luck with the blow jobs.
Wait a second, the museum is open all night tonight? That is beyond cool. Why, oh why do I have to be home sick tonight? I want to be at the museum at 3am. That would be so awesome. And maybe a bit creepy with the gladiators. Waaaaaa.
