President's Day Weekend is upon us. Did you know Martin van Buren was a huge roller derby fan? He would have cheered today's Patriotic Pummel derby bout from the beer garden.
SUNDAY, FEB. 16 2014 >>>
1. Rollerbladers thought they were so hot when they cruised onto the scene in the early '90s, with their flashy in-line wheels and sleek helmets. Quad-wheel roller skates were instantly obsolete - if you weren't sporting the in-lines, you weren't one of the cool kids. But, as we all know, fashion is cyclical, and the women's flat track roller derby leagues have brought back the quads, minishorts and striped tube socks. That said, Presidents' Day Weekend's underground derby bout between The Babe-raham Lincolns and George Bash-ingtons should be an interesting fashion (rollin') backward spectacle. Proceeds benefit CYS Foster Care Program. Expect a beer garden, raffle, halftime show and colorful Presidential metaphors beginning at 6 p.m. at Skateland.
2. GuitaristRafael Tranquilino brings his trio to The Spar in Old Town Tacoma for a night of fuse rock, blues and funk beginning at 7 p.m.
3. Will Miley Cyrus keep her tongue in her crooked tooth cave tonight? The former Miss Hannah Montana is bringing her tongue-wagging Bangerz Tour to the Tacoma Dome at 7 p.m.
4. Looking forward to laughing so hard you cry, shoot milk out of your nose, or fall out of your chair? That'll probably be the case when Second City brings its "Happily Ever Laughter" show to Olympia's Washington Center at 7:30 p.m. The world famous Chicago comedy club's touring comedians will combine improv and scripted bits to perform sketches that have made the company famous over the last 53 years. Good luck sneaking the milk into the show.
5. Seattle electronic indie band The Main Arcade plays a 9 p.m. at Le Voyeur.
