For your Saturday, a movie (including the Movies) and plenty of good shows:

‣ “Pass the Music,” a music documentary filmed between 2008 and ’10 focusing on the Silver Lake/Echo Park indie scene, screens for the first time publicly tonight at the Bootleg Theater. Following the 8 p.m. screening, there will be live music from Manhattan Murder Mystery, Tenlons Fort, Joey Siara (of the Henry Clay People), Radars to the Sky and a set saluting the late, great Silver Lake band the Movies. Check out the trailer right here.
‣ Funk will rule at the Mint where the Meters Experience brings together a stellar lineup of players including Leo Nocentelli, Stanton Moore, Bill Dickens and Bernie Worrell.
‣ It’s a night of great up-and-coming indie-rockers at the Satellite, where PAPA headlines, supported by Cillie Barnes and Lesands.
‣ Tijuana Panthers and the Lovely Bad Things head up a big lineup at the Glass House in Pomona.
‣ And the legendary Wu-Tang Clan tees it up at Club Nokia.
