Monday 2/6:

• Jack's Mannequin with Jukebox the Ghost at the TLA (yes, they played over the weekend, this is the 2nd show). Ticket link.
• Movie Monday at the Trocadero: Resurrect Dead, which is a documentary about those mysterious Toynbee tiles you see implanted in the asphalt on many Philly streets.  I've heard it's really good. More info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1787791/ .           21+, $3.  Doors at 6:30, show at 8, arrive before 7 and get a free beer and popcorn.

• Adam Arcuragi at Kung Fu Necktie, with Ports of Call and Golden Bloom. Ticket link.

Tuesday 2/7:

• Screening of A Raisin in the Sun at Theatre N, part of the Black History Month Film Series. But seriously - see this 1961 classic starring Sidney Poitier because it's a good film, and it's only $5.  7pm, Theatre N, $5.
• Classical: the Harlem String Quartet performs a chamber work by Mendelssohn in the Gold Ballroom of the Hotel DuPont, French pastries and champagne provided. Oh.  I see.  It's $55.  Total blue blood event.  Oh well. See the Wednesday column for more affordable chamber music. Info.
• The Darkness at the Trocadero, with Foxy Shazam. Ticket info link.
