Pencil This In

2006_10_arts_disco.jpgEVENT: Tonight PowerHouse books is having a signing event for the release of photographer Ron Galella's "Disco Years". This visual diary of the New York club scene in the 70's and 80's is sure to make you nostalgic for Studio 54 - even if that was before your time.

5:30 to 7pm // Rizzoli Bookstore [31 W 57th btw 5th & 6th] // Free

THEATER: The workaday lives of office temps are brightened by rumors of murder in Adam Bock’s Thugs. The Times hails it as a “delightfully paranoid little nightmare that is both more chillingly realistic and pointedly absurd than anything John Grisham ever dreamed up.” Perfect for administrative assistants seeking a little vicarious fantasy to break up the monotony. - John Del Signore

7:30pm // Soho Rep, 46 Walker St. // Tickets are going fast!

READING: Get ahold of the giant and the newcomer - catch Stephen King at Symphony Space tonight reading from his latest work, Lisey's Story, or head to the Astor Place B&N to catch Eggers-discovered Ryan Boudinot read from his debut short-story collection, The Littlest Hitler. - Krissa Corbett Cavouras

7:30 PM // Symphony Space [W. 95th St. and Broadway] // $21 [buy tickets]

7 PM // Barnes & Noble [4 Astor Place] // Free

MUSIC: Not going to see The Killers tonight? Good for you. Why not head over to Hoboken instead. Tally Hall and The Changes are playing at Maxwell's and we're going to bet that it's worth the trip. Give a listen at their respective links.

8pm // Maxwell's [1039 Washington St, Hoboken] / $8
