Wolfgang Laib's Without Place-Without Time-Without Body Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art	Every week Thursday from Thu., October 1 until Sun., January 17, 10:00am-9:00pm more dates/times	Midtown	Art

Electric Six, the Gay Blades, Millions of Brazilians, Antennas Up! The Riot Room	Sat., November 21	Westport	Music

The Get Up Kids, Kevin Devine, Mansions RecordBar	Sat., November 21 more dates/times	Westport	Music
Jim Suptic of the Get Up Kids inadvertently caused a media firestorm back in July when he jokingly apologized for his band’s role in creating emo music — the interview with Drowned in Sound was seized upon by Rolling Stone and the UK’s Guardian. If you’ve logged on to... More >>
