We were all crushed when Lila Thirkield announced that, after nearly 20 years, she couldn't keep the Lexington Club going. The last dyke bar in S.F. Crushing. While we expected New Year's Eve might be the Lex's death knell, we've been given a vague promise of a couple more months, so look alive, people. The Lex's final art show opens Jan. 28 with "A Photo and Flyer Retrospective," including the growing #lexbathroomselfie collection, and tonight promises an after-party to remember for Shot for Shot: The Lexington Club on Screen. The program, put together by local film teacher Elena Oxman, offers clips from the movies that Thirkield has allowed to be shot in her bar, including Oxman's own urban adventure Lit and Jackie Strano and Shar Rednour's pitch-perfect How to Pick Up Girls. "Shot for Shot" is co-presented by Good Vibrations and Frameline, so beyond a visual carousel of hot babes and good memories, you can expect some serviceable swag.
Shot for Shot starts at 7 p.m. at the Roxie, 3117 16th St., S.F. $10; 863-1087 or roxie.com. The after party is at the Lexington Club, 3464 19th St., S.F.
