Glad You Asked: Your Weekend To-Do's

Dear GYA, I can't believe these Android users now get to use the Instagram app! This is complete and utter malarkey. It's supposed to be for sophisticated geniuses with iPhones -- you know, real photographers. I mean, gosh, what's the point? We can't have these amateurs running around believing they can take quality photos with an Android smartphone! Urrgh, it makes me so mad. -Ansel Adams---

Ansel, I feel your pain. Everyone knows that iPhone users are natural-born photographers. I know you're upset, but I'm sure sooner or later you guys will find something new and expensive to be snobby about. So in the meantime, here are a few things happening this weekend that you could document with Instagram:

Let's start with Friday's lineup: 

- The Adventures of Sheer Luck Homes is playing at the Off Broadway Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are going for $8-$16.

- Stand-up comedian Mike E. Winfield will be performing at Wiseguys Trolley Square at 7 p.m. Tickets are going for $12.

- At 7 p.m., the Utah Jazz take on the Golden State Warriors at the Energy Solutions Arena. 

- Comedy troop The Laff Mobb will be performing at 8 p.m. at The Depot; tickets are going from $20-$25.  

- Rapper, singer, hair model T. Mills will be onstage at The Complex at 9 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance or $20 at the door.

As for Saturday's lineup:

- At The Kimball Art Center, the Egg Dying and Hunt kicks off at 4 p.m.
