GO ASK ANDREW Andrew WK, the hard-partying (but totally gentle and sweet) local celebrity and Santos Party House owner, opens the floor for questions tonight at said House, a la his short-lived MTV2 show. You can ask him anything. Some suggested queries: What's the best cure for a nosebleed? How much did this club cost? May I have your shirt?

JONZE AND BANGS ON SENDAK While Spike Jonze was making the film version of Where The Wild Things Are, he and his friend Lance Bangs spent a good chunk of time with the book's creator, Maurice Sendak, an 80-something artist who over the years has been defined -- much to his own dismay -- by the story. Tonight Jonze and Bang present Tell Them Anything You Want, a short documentary that they made during the time they spent with Sendak. After it screens they'll take questions. We can't believe tickets to this small-theater event aren't sold out yet, but they certainly will be soon.

GONZALES Y GONZALES Chilly Gonzales brings his four-week-long Joe's Pub residency to a close this evening. The impeccable pianist, humorist, rapper and rough around the edges entertainer has paired himself with performers ranging from A-Trak to Princess Superstar throughout the run, but the truth is that no matter who he's featuring as a guest, they always just provide him with a foil. It would be hard to find anyone that could outshine him.

BLACK AND BLUE AND NEW Gil Scott-Heron, who has been part of many great songs, spoken many brilliant, controversial words and was the creator of one of the best band names we've ever heard -- Black & Blues -- has returned. His new record, I'm New Here, doesn't feel like a typical comeback at all, though. The clips we've heard have been as raw and real as anything he's ever done, and though he's borrowed the occasional lyric from an earlier record, it feels like a knowing play on the past rather than a hollow attempt at a return to it. Tonight the American Folk Art Museum pays tribute to Heron with a screening of a doc about the singer, and a full listening session for the album.

FINGERS MEETS SATURDAY NIGHT Larry Heard is Mr. Fingers, a Chicago House luminary, whose track Can You Feel It still gives us goosebumps. He is one of the greats, and Mister Saturday Night has secured a special venue, the always cozy but sorely underused 12-Turn-13 loft, for the special occasion. Eamon and Justin are bringing down the walls as well, and of course there's a little open bar from 10p to 11p to get you going. Enjoy. We don't know how you could do anything but.
