1. Shhh,you didn't hear it from us, but Elvis Costello is playing a supposedly secret, not-so-surprise in-store show at Amoeba Records at 6 p.m. Better start lining up now to avoid listening from the back of the DVD section on the second floor.
2. Running with Scissors and Dry author Augusten Burroughs is reading from his new book, Magical Thinking: True Stories at Skylight Books. Go and feel better about your own childhood, since it's probably not as messed up as Burroughs' was.
3. Troublemaker/novelist/punk icon Neal Pollack makes another local appearance for Never Mind the Pollacks, this time at The Grove's Barnes and Noble at 7:30 p.m. We have it on pretty good authority that he might try and cause a ruckus. One can only hope that shirtlessness is involved.
4. Showing that adult beverages and rock magazines can peacefully come together, Absolut and Spin co-sponsor a party at Star Shoes. Los Angeles locals Earlimart perform. Hipsters, shoe aficionados, and cross-promotional marketing fans alike can rejoice.
