SATURDAY, JULY 20 2013 >>>
1. Doyle's Public House is hosting its first annual "Smoke Off" from 4-7 p.m. It has nothing officially to do with Initiative 502. Rather, it's a smoked meat competition with 100 percent of the proceeds benefitting F.I.S.H. Food Banks of Pierce County. Anyone can enter, and everyone who attends is a judge. For $20 you may sample every cook of ribs and other meaty categories and help pick the winner. So shove your pockets full of moist towletts and help support an organization that fed 140,000 families in Pierce County last year.
2. Gig Harbor Summer Art Festival throws local art, music, food and more onto the streets of downtown Gig Harbor from 10 a.m.- 6 p.m.
3. Oh, Lakefair. You seductive tramp. Every year you roll through Oly, wafting your carnival of appeals, your treasures of artistic desire, your car shows, your cotton candy, your Queens, your nights of beer. And every time you draw us into the revelry. You're the party that completes us, Lakefair. We just can't deny you. You're the one for us. Except for that one time we made out with that Funtastic chick after shots at the Clipper. What the hell was that all about? Anyway, click here for today's recommended Lakefair music, including C-Average's last show ever.
4. Having relocated to the South Sound, Jake Frye, an English teacher, found a bassist in one of his former students, Derek Reed. Suddenly, the prospect of sharing Jesus on the Moon became a reality. The two of them, along with a drum machine, began showing Jesus on the Moon to audiences. Jesus on the Moon tends toward a sort of jumpy, Devo-ish vibe. Simple drum machine patterns run under fairly unadorned electric guitars, creating a gently driving momentum, on some songs. Other songs up the spaced-out moodiness, like "Divide" and "In a Spell." Still, songs like "Proletariat Rock" could pass for Dave Edmunds outtakes. Check them out with Tortilla Flat at 9 p.m. in The New Frontier Lounge. Read Rev. Adam McKinney's full feature on Jesus on the Moon in Northwest Military's Music & Culture section.
5. Members of the Pacific Northwest reggae community have come together to form Stay Grounded - a band rich in experience and new in concept. Join their good vibe with Ethan Tucker and I Rain at 8 p.m. in Jazzbones.
