SPITTING MAD
—It's time to bust out the gender-fucking rabblerousing, break down some social constructs, and say "screw you" to "the Man": activisty-feministy-just-plain-spitty roadshow Sister Spit is in town. Queer icons like Michelle Tea and Kirk Read perform along with a half-dozen others. And of course there's an afterparty onsite. SM
w/DJ Snowtiger; Holocene, 1001 SE Morrison, 7 pm, $10

FINN-ISH—He's beardy, a Kiwi, and melodic royalty—it's Liam Finn, the heir apparent and crown prince son of Neil Finn (Split Enz, Crowded House). Liam's in town to give our soggy ears some sunny Fab Four-esque loving, so bask in his charming presence while he shines bright onstage. CF
w/the Luyas; Doug Fir, 830 E Burnside, 9 pm, $12-14

In an unfortunate confluence of literary events I don't want to choose between, Smallpressapalooza is also tonight - Powell's is hosting a marathon reading of small press authors, including Nicole Georges, award-winning slam poet Anis Mojgani, Vegan Revolution... with Zombies author David Agranoff, and more. That's from 6-9:30 pm at the downtown store. Smallpressapalooza, or Michelle Tea and Blake Nelson at Sister Spit? Boo.
