The Dude abides this weekend at Lebowski Fest, where achievers donning their finest terry cloth will gather to enjoy live music, bowling, trivia, and, of course, a screening of the Coen Brothers’ cult comedy that inspired it all — “The Big Lebowski.” Punk marching band Mucca Pazza and Mesiko kick off Friday’s festivities, followed by the film, with Todd Snider, The Deloreans and The White Russians performing at Saturday’s Garden Party on the Executive Lawn. Speaking of White Russians: The Dude’s drink of choice will be flowing throughout the fest, which culminates with a free after-party Saturday night.
