FILM: Spiritual dreams, full-blown hallucinations, and alpha-wave highs, all without drugs? Sign us up! Award-winning documentary FLicKeR tells the story of Canadian artist and visionary Brion Gysin's dream machine: a bright light placed inside a rotating cylinder that matches with the alpha waves in our brains (the results are pretty incredible). Check out the premier tonight, and please don't try to make your own machine—we don't want you locked up at home staring at a lightbulb shoved into a toilet paper roll. The Bloor Cinema (506 Bloor Street West), 9:15 p.m., $8 for members, $11 for non-members.

MUSIC: The Mahones, The Warped 45's, and Eugine Ripper are celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Fast Folk Underground concert series tonight at the legendary Dakota Tavern. The Mahones are getting ready to tour the US with Irish-American punk-rockers the Dropkick Murphys, so bail out on that financial planning appointment you had with your accountant, grab yourself a Jameson's, and get ready to wake up tomorrow feeling like a character from a Bukowski novel. The Dakota Tavern (249 Ossington Avenue), 10 p.m., $10.
