When: 9pm
Where: Medusa Lounge, 3211 Beverly Boulevard (213-382-5723 or www.medusalounge.com)
What: Lightning in a Bottle

Saturday:
What: Tim Burton book signing
Why: Because having the film auteur's signature on your copy of the catalog from his just-opened LACMA exhibition automatically ups your library's cool quotient. Stick around for the museum's 7pm screening of the 1994 Burton/Johnny Deep collabo "Ed Wood."
