1. In the same way that sharks must keep swimming to keep breathing, it seems guitarist Rafael Tranquilino must fuse genres across various musical projects in order to stay afloat. His arrangements incorporate blues, funk, rock, funk, ska, metal, reggae, Latin and jazz-fusion. As accomplished as he is varied, Tranquilino can be seen every Monday night as host of Stonegate Pizza's rockin' blues, if not experimental, jam at 8 p.m. He's one of the best guitarists in the South Sound.

2. Tacoma Deputy Mayor Marty Campbell invites the public to a Proposition 1 facts and information session at 6 p.m. in Lincoln High School. The Nov. 5 Tacoma election issue asks voters to consider a proposal that would authorize the City to levy an additional 2 percent tax on natural gas, electric and phone company earnings for the sole purpose of funding basic Tacoma-wide neighborhood street improvements and safety upgrades.

3. The Bam Bams - two women from Baltimore who rock the garage pop - join Chung Antique and Cruel Summer at 7 p.m. in Le Voyeur.

4. Billy Stapleton joins Little Bill and the Blue Notes for "The Guitarists Recording Session" at 8 p.m. in The Swiss.

5. O'Malley's Irish Pub on Tacoma's Sixth Avenue hosts "Mondays For The Damned," a night of new wave, synth pop, goth, industrial, post-punk and more from the '80s to current, spun by Night Shift (Nicole and Aaron) and guest DJs, while Rich Sumner screens videos and movies. Get dark over $3.25 micro brew pints and a pound of wings for $5.50, beginning at 9 p.m.
