Every week, BR&S picks out a series of gallery Events/Screenings/Exhibitions/Performances. Here are our choices for you to go & see this week:
• Events
Tuesday 11 September
Café Fixe, Brookline
Non-Event presents Kevin Micka + Mark Pearson Duo
Local multi-instrumentalists/instrument designers Kevin Micka and Mark
William Pearson build aleatoric and improvised hallucinatory
soundscapes using prepared guitars, homemade electronics, cassettes
and voice. Kevin and Mark also perform together in the long-running
sculpture-project-cum-rock-band Neptune as well as in Kevin's Animal
Hospital Ensemble. As a duo, their explorations rely on simultaneous
deft impulse and the choice of making discerning minimal movements. At
times, the results are pretty funny.

Opus Affair, Boston
We have a charitable drinking game we like to play each month: the Punch Bowl Fund. Join us at the bar and donate $5 (cash) to the fund and you’ll get a drink ticket for a glass of punch and a ballot to vote for one of three featured non-profits. The organization with the most votes will get a donation for the total amount raised that night—winner take all! We’ll go until we run out of time or punch…whichever comes first (I’d bet on the latter). In other words: be early, be thirsty. This month we’ll be featuring:
• Big Red & Shiny Come & Support BR&S!!!
• Cambridge Concentus
• Bad Habit Productions
6-9pm / Free / RSVP here.
