Music
Rodfest is held each year to support the Greg "Rodney" Moynahan Memorial Scholarship. Moynahan, a musician who used to host "Rodfests" to celebrate his birthday, died in a car crash in 2004. Kier Byrnes, Moynahan's cousin and a member of Three Day Threshold, has continued the "Rodfest" tradition, and the money goes to Moynahan's alma mater, Stonehill College. Bands this year include Three Day Threshold, Girls Guns & Glory, Rogue Heroes, Cassavetes, and the Bowen Street Band. The Paradise, 8:00 pm.
Movies
--And you thought the Brattle gorged itself on the cinema of Ingmar Bergman with its recent Bergmanfest. You were wrong. They've dug up a print of 1953's Monika, which represents Bergman's sexy side. He did have one, you know. Showtimes from the Brattle.
