1. Culminating a full week of celebration in the name of 50 years in the pizza business, Tacoma's iconic Cloverleaf will welcome the band Sunny 4 Cast to "rock out" tonight. Not surprisingly, there will also be beer specials. There have been specials all week, in fact, from kids' nights, to happy hour beer prices all day, to pizza "squashing" contests. Good times have been had by all. As we're reminded by press release, "The Cloverleaf was established in 1951 and began serving our World Famous Pizzas in 1961. ...The purpose of this celebration is to thank our loyal customers. We could not have made it 50 years without them and that is why we are hosting this celebration, in their honor."

2. Drop by Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Tacoma for Blues Vespers and be treated to the sure-to-be-spectacular jams of Rod Cook & Toast with special guest Jay Mabin.

3. Been jonesing for some drum circle action? Ted Brown Music has you covered. Check out the all-ages community drum circle every Sunday at Ted Brown Music on Tacoma Mall Boulevard from 6:30 - 8 p.m. There's no cover charge, and you can bring your own drum or one can be provided.

4. Check out the Super Rock Trivia Contest Karaoke at the Westgate Bar and Grill - billed as, "live band karaoke with a twist." The fun starts at 11 p.m., after "Sunday Jam Night" wraps up.

5. The Fair Trade Market, hosted by St. Leo Parish and Urban Grace Church, promises a guilt-free way to start your holiday shopping. In its final day today at Catholic Community Services, the annual event is your chance to get in on, "baskets, ornaments, linens, musical instruments, food products and more from vendors such as Ten Thousand Villages, Theo Chocolate, Laughing Lotus, L'Arche, and many more," according to pre-event hype.
