Dark Side of the Moon, Sorta...
--The last lunar eclipse for the next 2 years is happening tonight. With binoculars or even the naked eye, the moon will start to look pretty darn red around 9:00 pm EST, as if the green cheese has turned into a port wine spread. The prime time will be between 10pm and 10:30pm. Why not get a better look at an obsevatory? Harvard Observatory, 60 Garden St, Cambridge, 9:00pm to 11:00pm, free.

Music
--Flogging Molly will whip the Palladium in Worcester into shape tonight. The band tours in support of Float, due out March 4.

--During lunch, La Donna Musicale performs classical & baroque compositions composed by composers who were not dudes: Barbara Strozzi, Antonia Bembo, Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, Julie Pinel & Anna Bon. NU Fenway Center (formerly St. Ann’s Church), 77 St. Stephen Street, noon, free! (They'll be at the MIT Chapel tomorrow, also at noon, also free.)

--Darkbuster's Hometown Throwup continues with The Scars and The Morgan Knockers. Bostonist has the scoop about all the bands playing this week's Throwup. Harper's Ferry, 9:00 pm, $10.

Charity
If you're feeling frisky and frigid, head to the Winter Warmer Fundraiser for the Melanoma Foundation of New England's marathon team. A suggested $25 donation gets you in the door for specialty cocktails and lite bites at the Sanctuary (189 State Street) from 5:30-8:00, all while helping a good cause.

The Cannon Canon
Harvard Film Archive screens Sergei Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin, so you can go tonight and stop pretending you've seen it. Harvard Film Archive, 7:00 pm, free.

Great for anyone wondering how to best use technology to the benefit of themselves or their fellow citizens.
