2. Poet David Rowe will be stopping at Orca Books at 2 p.m. on his tour from San Diego to Seattle, bringing life to the words bookslut.com called "beautiful and chaotic and sexy and sonorous."

The event will be followed by a chance a meet and greet with Chihuly at the Tacoma Art Museum. Weekly Volcano art critic Alec Clatic chimes in on TAM's Chihuly exhibit here.
4. For those out of the loop, every February in Memphis the top blues act in the world gather for one of the biggest blues competitions known to man - on Beale Street, of course. Also, every year the South Sound Blues Association holds a competition (usually in June) to choose one lucky band to represent them and the entire region at said competition in Memphis. This, naturally, takes money - which is where today's fundraiser comes into play. The South Sound Blues Association will host another fundraiser to help send the Red Hot Blues Sisters (band winner) and Jumpin' Josh and Felicia (duo act winner) to the International Blues Challenge in Memphis this February. The 4-10:30 p.m. concert takes place at Louie G's Pizzeria and will feature Jumpin' Josh and Felicia, Chester Dennis Jones Band, Nick Vigarino and friends, The Wired Band, The Randy Oxford Band and The Red Hot Blues Sisters.
5. Speaking of blues, legendary Tacoma bluesman Little Bill and the Blue Notes will play a free show at the Spar as part of the Old Town Tacoma joint's weekly 7 p.m. Sunday Night Blues showcase.
