LIVE MUSIC AND DJS TONIGHT IN THE SOUTH SOUND >>>
Sleaze Rock: Nashvile Pussy is a band built on only a handful of elements, the most predominant ones being whiskey, sweat, sex and fire. The band, by design, is your oily, stoned, horny, high school brother's favorite rock band. Believe it or not, it's a brilliant premise. Read the full story here. Parental Advisory Tour with Green Jelly and Psychostick, Friday, May 14, 9 p.m., $15-$20, Hell's Kitchen, 928 Pacific Ave., Tacoma, 253.759.6003 - Matt Driscoll
Glam Garage Folk Rock: The I's are Portland glam-garage by way of Austin punk, and when they land in Olympia they'll be playing bluesy folk-rock, informed though it may be by a good chunk of musical history. Read the full story here. With Haukness and Flesh Lawn, Friday, May 14, 10 p.m., no cover, Le Voyeur, 404 Fourth Ave. E., Olympia, 360.943.5710 - Rev. Adam McKinney
DJs: Back in the day, Brits loved obscure American soul records almost as much as they loved mayonnaise and cucumber sandwiches. DJs Bobby Galaxy and dAb celebrate this phenomenon by playing authentic, obscure soul, funk and jazz records tonight. It's the kind of music that would have been heard at all-night parties in Manchester or Blackpool back in the day. Bring your own skinny tie. Friday, May 14, 9:30 p.m., no cover, Tempest Lounge, 913 Martin Luther King Junior Way, Tacoma, 253.272.4904 - Michael Swan
