WHAT'S UP TODAY? Part-time Gorillaz, lady shredders and writing tips for teens

Barreling into a weekend full of good things to do, there's good reason to get it started early. Several, in fact, judging by our event listings and Staff Picks. We've perused the activities slated for today, and here's what we found worth noting for Thursday, Nov. 6: 

MUSIC | Top of the list clearly is the show at Knitting Factory featuring Deltron 3030 and turntablist extraordinaire Kid Koala — who is both opening the show and part of the headlining trio. Deltron 3030 collects three regular contributors to the Gorillaz in producer Dan the Automator, rapper Del Tha Funky Homosapien and DJ Kid Koala, and collectively they've made one killer of an album in Event 2. Here's a little taste of their sound: 


FILM | Gonzaga is hosting a screening of Pretty Faces, a documentary about women who thrive in all manner of snow sports. Consider it a must-see for ski-flick fans — boys and girls, men and women. Here's a look: 


WORDS | Aspiring young writers unite! Here's the perfect opportunity for sixth-graders on up: The Teen Writers of the Inland Empire, or T.W.I.N.E., are holding their monthly meeting tonight at the Spokane Valley Library.
