MICHAEL SWAN: HUGE PARTY TONIGHT >>>

When people think of hotspots for house music, drum 'n' bass and its followers, a few joints come to mind. Turnmills. The Warehouse. The Haçienda. Paradise Garage. But Freighthouse Square?

Yes, at least tonight.

Matt Eklund of Pacific Fusion Productions and Dave Curtis of South Sound Collective â€" the maestros who brought the element-based party “Fresh Air” at the Robert Daniel Gallery in January â€" will light a spark under the Freighthouse Square when they present “Playing With Fire” tonight. Held in the Rainier Room, the two producers will synchronize visuals with music â€" 10 DJs, 15 local artists, fire dancing, jugglers, stilt walkers and a fashion show â€" for full fiery, sensory stimulation.

Read an interview with the two producers here.

[Freighthouse Square, Saturday, April 4, 9:30 p.m., 18+, bar with ID, $7-$10, Rainier Room, 430 E. 25th St., Tacoma]
