- Aaron at Out of Focus reminds us that there's going to be a Spalding Gray Tribute on WNYC today at noon. Leonard Lopate will include an interview with Gray from 1990. You can listen to WNYC via the website.

- We're enjoying Central Valley Large Animal Clinic, which covers various NY art goings-on, like the Armory Show, which started yesterday, and upcoming film programs. No mention of large animals, though. Yet.

- whatisee has a movie of Cirque du Soleil's performance at Grand Central. whatisee's report with pictures also notes that Law & Order SVU Medical Examiner portrayer, Tamara Tunie, was on hand to give an intro (and to flub it, apparently). Gothamist has loved Tamara ever since she played Jessica Griffin, the lone black character on As the World Turns, who married Duncan, McKechnie, the Scots millionaire, and had to deal with Lauryn Hill crushing on Duncan. Cirque du Soleil's Allegria will be performed at Randalls Island this May.
