Brand-New Perks

This week, Perks lets you skip the line at the town's hottest new club (aka Royale) and, for an after-party, gives you a chance at two VIP tickets to a taping of The Colbert Report. If you were looking for an excuse to buy a pet eagle, this is it.

Miss Boston 2010 Begins. With Bikinis.

Boston has a lot of homegrown hotness, and if you head to Revolution Rock Bar tonight, you'll be able to observe a lot of it, as the Miss Boston 2010 search kicks off this evening with a judged bikini show. While you try not to wear your drink, 12 shapely beauties will try to wear next-to-nothing better than the girl next to her. You deserve this.

Last Chance to Get Mortified
DEAR DIARY

Last Chance to Get Mortified

Nothing's more fun than laughing at other people's misfortunes (except maybe a citywide bikini contest), so you might want to catch the last night of Mortified Live at the Oberon. Monologues of comically embarrassing moments are read from performers' personal journals, all while you sip cocktails and realize your childhood wasn't so bad after all.

Jun 11, 10:30pm, $15, Club Oberon, 2 Arrow St, Cambridge, tickets at 866-811-4111 or here

A World Cup Viewing Party for 2,000

To truly embrace the World Cup, you need: a) big-screen TVs, b) a raucous crowd and c) a willingness to drink before noon. Be among the first 2,000 through the doors at the House of Blues tomorrow morning when it opens at 10am, and you can catch the games, rub elbows with the entire New England Revolution team (and those spicy Rev Girls) or just get right to boozing. U-S-A, U-S-A...

Stanhope's 12 Stations of Buffet Glory

After your World Cup revelry on Saturday, Sunday may call for a rather large meal. Lucky for you, the Stanhope Grille is unveiling a big, opulent brunch on Sunday, complete with 12 stations of waffles, charcuterie, custom omelets and Sesame Crusted Tuna Loin. This is not a cereal kind of day.
