JFA play Fortune Soundclub tonight.

Get thrashing: Long-running SoCal skate punk institution JFA, often mistaken for the Japan Football Association, hit Fortune Sound Club along with special guests the Tubuloids and DJ Age.

 

Get laughing: Up-and-coming comedian Sunee Dhaliwal (no relation to Courier publisher Dee Dhaliwal) headlines at Yuk Yuk’s tonight.  

 

Get hopping: In partnership with Vancouver New Music, the Contemporary Art Gallery offers a free outdoor show tonight featuring solo performances by Mark McGregor (piccolo), Françoise Houle (clarinet), Llowyn Ball (violin) and Martin Fisk (percussion) combining recordings of crickets (yes, crickets) at Emery Barnes Park.

Get moving: It’s your last chance to see the contemporary dance offerings of the Dancing on the Edge festival, including Dumb Instrument Dance and Ziyian Kwan’s The Mars Hotel tonight at the Firehall Arts Centre.

Get operatic: Travel to London’s famed Royal Opera House and watch premieres of the world’s finest operas minus the pricey airfare as Vancity Theatre hosts Opera Week, kicking things off with L’Elisir D’amore (The Love Potion).
