Friday, Feb. 19 >>>

1.Floater, Mom's Rocket and In Lunar Blue will be tearing up Hell's Kitchen starting at 9 p.m. tonight.  This show should defy silence on Pacific Avenue in epic proportions.  Don't say we didn't warn you.  $10, 9 p.m., 21+  928 Pacific Ave, Tacoma.

2. Where Sails Meet Rails holds theirEconomics of Love EP release party with friends The Colonies and Sordid Sentinels tonight at The New Frontier Lounge. 8 p.m. $5, 21+, 301 East 25th Street, Tacoma, 253.572.4020

3. 

Widmer Brewing is bringing five of their best beers to Vinum Wine Bar tonight. ("Best beers"?  We'll be the judge of that.) $5 for the tasting, as well as select appetizers for $5 or under. Get your cheap ass out there.  4 p.m. 21+ 1001 Pacific Ave S, Suite A, Tacoma

4. Opening today at the Grand Cinema is North Face, a film loosely based on the 1936 attempt by two mountain-climbing teams to be the first to summit the Swiss massif dubbed Eiger, the ogre.  North Face was also an official selection in the 2009 Tacoma Film Festival, so you know it's got to be worthy. Fri-Sun, Feb 19-21: (12:45), *(3:30), 6:15, 8:55, Mon-Thurs, Feb 22-25: (3:30), 6:15, 8:55 606 South Fawcett Ave., 
Tacoma 253.593.4474

5. Guest artists Awilda Verdjo, soprano; Hartwig Eichberg, piano; and Ron Welch, cello; in addition to the Adelphian Concert Choir will perform works inspired by the poetry of Langston Hughes in Schneebeck Concert Hall at UPS. (The university, not the shipping company.) The word is to expect anything from art songs to pop songs, blues/folk to Broadway - Hughes' poetry is supple enough for a broad variety of musical styles.  7:30 p.m., $12.50 general; $8.50 senior citizens, students, faculty/staff; admission free for Puget Sound students. 1500 N. Warner St. Tacoma, 253.879.3419
