Body Language — Social Studies
This band is properly named.
Indie
Joshua Boydston
If Body Language breaks out like it has the potential to, the Brooklyn-based four piece surely would owe a heavy debt to Passion Pit; it’s a similar formula with the twist of adding a female vocalist … although that feels but a step removed from Michael Angelakos’ signature falsetto.
Fall into fitness
Staying fit among falling leaves outdoors can be done on foot, wheels or rocks.
Sports
Sky Nelson
Since the sweltering summer heat has made its exit, so should indoor workouts. Outdoor exercise makes a great boredom-busting option to heat up any fitness routine.

In most cases, drinking beer while running is ill-advised. Exception: Saturday’s second annual McNellie’s Pub Run, starting 11:30 a.m. at the Midtown hot spot, 1100 Classen Drive. In addition to traditional race and fun-run options, the Guinness Challenge adds a trio of 12-ounce pints to a four-mile course. Hic! Registration is $15-$45. Visit mcnelliespubrun.com.

Whether you’re walking or running, the 26th annual Renaissance Run begins at 8:30 a.m. Saturday at the Midwest City Community Center, 200 N. Midwest Blvd. Too early for you? Perhaps this phrase will change your mind: “concludes with a pancake breakfast.” Thought so. Registration is $30. Call 739-1293 or visit signmeup. com/84804.

The Victim
Biehn there, dumb that.
Thriller
Rod Lott
Michael Biehn was so inspired by appearing in Grindhouse that he wrote and directed his own grindhouse tribute, The Victim.
