Kim is off to the Fremont Abbey tonight to catch one of PDX's finest singer-songwriters, Laura Gibson, in action. She will spend the rest of the weekend napping, baking, and watching movies. Sunday night, she'll emerge from her lair for Jenny Owen Youngs at the High Dive.

Weekend Music
First things first: get thee to Decibel. Even if you think that electronic music's not your thing, there are plenty of acts on the lineup that are easily accessible to even the biggest electro-phobe (see: Sunday's schedule).
We Call It: The Best Shows of 2007
magazine claims, "You can't swing a dead cat this time of year without hitting a Top 10 List." Never one to waste a perfectly good dead cat, we decided to take a swing and create a Top Random-Number Shows Seattlest Saw This Year. And now, without any further ado, here's how your favorite bloggers broke down the year:
Get Out Tonight, Next Friday: Brad’s Back
It’s been five years since soft-rock-but-hard-when-they-want-to-be Brad has released a proper album, and about three years since they’ve played live. Now the local quartet (Shawn Smith, Stone Gossard, Mike Berg and Regan Hagar), one of our favorite bands anywhere, is back in action—they’ve got an album in the works and they’re playing NYC and Seattle this month.
You Say It's Wig's Birthday
It's local music review website/fledgling indie PR firm The Wig Fits All Heads' third anniversary, and meanwhile it's also booking/PR/management/etc. Northwest Bands' fourth, so to celebrate the two have combined their forces to throw some big-ass birthday parties.
Get Out
THEATER: Hey, don't tell anyone, because this could really upset the natural order of things in town, but SPF:1 - No Protection is dangerously close to a fringe theater festival. Performing tonight are Keith Hitchcock, Mary Purdy, Jonah Von Spreecken all of Seattle.
