LIVE MUSIC TONIGHT IN THE SOUTH SOUND >>>

Cicada Restaurant Olympia. The Joe Baque Trio. 8 pm.

Doyle's Public House Tacoma - Stadium District. SweetKiss Momma. 9 pm. NC.

Fuse Cafe Ruston. Malcolm Clark Band 10 Year Anniversary. 8 pm. NC.

• The Malcolm Clark Band has been together 10 freakin' years! Doing anything for 10 years straight is tough ... we know firsthand, seeing as this is the 10th year of the Weekly Volcano. Saturday, Clark, Mike Couloues and crew celebrate 10 years - blues style, of course - at the F?SE Cafe in Ruston. Expect the blues-based groove Clark has come to be known for, and quite possibly a Hawaiian shirt. — Weekly Volcano

Hell's Kitchen Tacoma - Downtown. Wide Eye Panic, Esitu, Rishloo, From The Sea. 9 pm. $5.

• Can I be honest with you? Good. My brother loves Rishloo. He is a fan of metal in a way I cannot quite wrap my brain around. Whenever he tries to talk to me about metal, he always brings up Rishloo - a band he is convinced I will like because of the way it incorporates progressive rock and psychedelia influences. At one point, he dragged me down to see a show, and you know what? It was fucking fun. The lead singer has a perfect falsetto metal wail, which works expertly with the faux-introspective flow of the music. I don't want to convince you Rishloo is more than it is, but the band is a hell of a lot of fun. And they really deliver on their ridiculous promise. - Rev. Adam McKinney

Jazzbones Tacoma - Sixth Avenue. Bass Odyssey, with Brian Bromberg, Norm Stockton, Bryan Beller, Jeff Morgan, E. Pruit. 7 pm. $15.

• You like bass, sure, but are you ready to go on a motherfucking bass ODYSEEY? An odyssey is nothing to be taken lightly, my friend. ... But of course you're ready. Of course you're ready for an evening of bass mastery on display, the likes of which have rarely been seen (probably not since Bass Odyssey 2010). Billed as "an entire night devoted to the talent, technique and style of bassists Brian Bromberg, Norm Stockton, Bryan Beller, Jeff Morgan and E. Pruit," Bass Odyssey 2011 at Jazzbones Saturday may be flying under the radar for some this weekend - but will surely be talked about come Monday morning. - Matt Driscoll
