Here's what's going on today (Wednesday, Jan. 2): Filmmaker Christopher Blackwood's 1989 documentary Motel is the Psychotronic Film Society's offering for 8 p.m. at the Sentient Bean. It's a quirky look at odd American lodgings - The Silver Saddle Motel in Santa Fe, N.M., the Blue Mist Hotel in Florence, Ariz., and the Amargosa Hotel and Opera in California's Death Valley Junction. At Live Wire, it's Open Jam Night with the estimable Eric Culberson.
