Afternoon delight: You don't have lunch plans, do you? Of course you don't. Make a date with Where Ya At, the creole food truck that's been making the rounds and drumming up buzz for a full year now. Scoot down to Cascade People's Center in South Lake Union for an anniversary celebration. There will be cupcakes.

Today from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. // Cascade People's Center, 309 Pontius Ave N // Lunch prices

Industrial's Grandfathers: Before Rammstein, before Nine Inch Nails, KMFDM was thrilling the goth kids (then known as "bat-cavers") with their combination of Krautrock with Industrial Dance music. Their name is an acronym for a phrase which translates to "No Pity for the Majority," KMFDM is touring behind their new album WTF?! which came out in April. They've been playing live clubs for nearly three decades now, so their show is solid, and is guaranteed to turn El Corazon into a noisy, sweaty dance pit (like the joint needed any help). w/ Army of the Universe, 16 Volt and Human Factors Lab.

Tonight, doors at 7:00p.m., show at 8:00p.m. // El Corazon, 109 Eastlake Avenue // $25

A Score to Settle:The Seattle Sounders lost the opening game in the CONCACAF Champions Cup against Panama's San Francisco FC 1-0, and tonight they get a rematch at Century Link Field. In order to advance, the Sounders combined score from the two games must be better than San Francisco's; in other words, a 0-0 tie will not do -- if they succeed in shutting out their scorers, the boys in rave green would still need to score two goals before moving on to the next level. Should be a fun one to watch with the faithful.

Tonight at 7:00p.m. // Century Link Field, 800 Occidental Avenue South // $28 - $98

Who Needs 3D?: The sins against the 2010 Clash of the Titans remake are legion -- terrible dialogue, waste of a potent Greek-mythos-storyline, murky CGI/3D action, wooden performances, the borrowing of a Norse sea monster, the list is endless. Compare that to the sins against the original 1981 Clash of the Titans: the camp factor is off the roof, Harry Hamlin's toga only just covers the goods. Beyond that, the original has more life, humor and sense of adventure in a single frame than the remake possesses in its entire running time. Plus, Harryhausen's mythological creatures are a sight to behold.

Tonight at 7:00p.m. // Central Cinema, 1411 21st Avenue // $8
