Tuesday, Nov. 12

What's Up? Big Boy: 8 p.m., Gypsy Sally's, 3401 K Street, NW, Washington, DC 20007. Big Boy Little may be the nom de blues of veteran harp player/ singer Bret Littlehales, but then again it may not. If it is, then we can trace him back to the Northside Blues Band in 1968- 69, with a young Bobby Radcliff on guitar. If not, then he might have been the mysterious harp player on Son House's extended recording of Death Letter Blues in Mississippi circa 1942. Then again, that might have been someone else.

Yes, Judge: 5:30 p.m.,  ICC Auditorium on Georgetown University's campus. The Department of Italian at Georgetown University along with The Embassy of Italy and the Italian Cultural Institute of Washington, D.C. invite you to a lecture by Giuliano Amato, Judge of the Constitutional Court. He will discuss Machiavelli's The Prince and its Era. 1513-2013. Reception to follow.
