what's going on this weekend?

One Friday standout: Calu’s Lil’ Go Go Peep Show comes to Big City Club, 1132 Broadway. It features a burlesque dancer from Atlanta. First show starts at 11 p.m. I'm assuming cover is $5, but check at the door for confirmation.

And on a tamer, more family-friendly note, don't forget about Saturday's Midnight Express 5K race. It starts at midnight at Country's Barbecue, 3137 Mercury Drive. Registration is $25 and all proceeds benefit the visually impaired. Get details here.
