SPORTS—Sure, you’ve been complaining all summer about the awful heat. But once the rain comes, you’ll be sad about that, too—secretly wishing you’d had just a little bit more fun in the sun. Head off those regrets while you still can! Come play and drink (and win cash-money prizes) at Kicktoberfest, the Mercury‘s inaugural (and bitchin’) kickball tournament. DENIS C. THERIAULT

MUSIC/ART—Chanticleer Trü closes out TBA’s The Works with a nightclub disguised as an art installation, or an installation that is actually a nightclub. It’s the world premiere of Evelyn, an interactive, experiential, glittering art piece named for disco legend Evelyn “Champagne” King. Audience members are encouraged to dress their clubbiest best and “become part of the work” by reveling in it. MEGAN BURBANK
The Works at Fashion Tech, 2010 SE 8th, 10:30 pm, $8-10
MUSIC—Star Bar celebrates four years of underrated happy hours and rock ‘n’ roll nights with a free show that’s gonna be tighter than the black clothing hugging the asses of fans of the Mean Jeans and Long Knife, who’ll be providing the soundtrack to tomorrow’s hangover. Don’t forget the vegan Jell-O shots! MARJORIE SKINNER
