The Daily Fact: Für Elise

CIVIX

2-5 p.m., Capital Mark Bank and Trust, 551 W. Main St.
Uh-oh, looks like one of those navel-gazing board retreats. On the agenda: a board self-evaluation and, yipes, "team-building actvity." (Location changed due to weather concerns.)

7 p.m., Howard H. Baker Center, UT campus. Free.
Tom Bogart, the new president of Maryville College, will discuss his book of the same name. (This event has been postponed because of weather concerns.)

CULTCHA

WDVX Blue Plate Special: Bill Mize with Grace Pettis
Noon, Knoxville Visitor Center. Free.
Mize is a local fingerpickin' hero with an international rep, and Pettis is a warm-voiced Austin folkie.

6 p.m., Preservation Pub. Free.
Oregon "indiegrass" trio, which is I guess what you call "alt-country" these days. Anyway, they sound all right.

7 p.m., Disc Exchange. Free.
A WFIV Homegrown showcase for two singer-songwriter types, one local and one out of Memphis.

7 p.m., Remedy Coffee. Free.
A perfect setting for Pettis' coffeehouse-style folk, and her supple, soaring voice.

7:30 p.m., Clarence Brown Theatre. Free-$35.
CBT's take on the Meredith Wilson classic, with Marian the librarian and all. Trouble, right here!

8 p.m., Bijou Theatre. $39.50.
At 58, Williams is trying something new: happiness. For evidence, see her new album, Blessed. Or, just see her.

10 p.m., Pilot Light. $5.
If you missed the psycho-surf/goth-surf double-bill last night at Pres Pub, here's a second chance.
