Does it surprise you to learn that Mean Girls came out 20 whole years ago? Maybe that’s because the Tina Fey-penned film is so iconic it feels timeless, or maybe it’s that it was turned into a Broadway musical in 2018 that jumped onto the big screen just this year. Regardless, we’re guessing all these iterations and maybe even the 2011 made-for-TV sequel could be on the table for a free night of quiz questions presented by the titans of trivia from Get It Games. Costumes are encouraged, and may we remind you it’s spring fling season? – Kat McNevins

They share a last name and a penchant for breaking hearts, and for a night at Saxon Pub, they will unite across space and time to share a bill (sort of). A packed lineup of Austin artists gather to pay tribute to two genre stalwarts, Hank and Lucinda Williams. At the 12th “kinda” annual Williams Nite, artists will play a song from each Williams, plus one of their own. Matching source material, the lineup spans Americana influences, from the high octane sound of Shinyribs’ Kevin Russell, to blues from Carolyn Wonderland and Shelley King (performing together) and Akina Adderley, to the twangier tastes of Chris Beall and Dallas Burrow. Proceeds benefit the SIMS Foundation. – Abby Johnston
