Crawl Space's Final Opening

Crawl Space is closing, which is cause for howling. This is the last opening. The show is Stranger Circumstances, featuring Seattle trio PDL, Italian artist Massimo Guerrera, Montreal's Alana Riley, and Vancouver's Ron Tran, focusing on encounters between artists and strangers. These encounters will happen at the opening. Things that have happened at past openings: beercycling, making out, ogling sewn fruit, art-encrusted toilets, Triscuit sponsorship, endless pathways to nowhere. Howl. (Crawl Space Gallery, 504 E Denny Way #1, 201-2441. 6–10 pm, free.)

Music

David Bazan, Say Hi, the Sea Navy

Tonight, former Pedro the Lion frontman David Bazan returns home from a solo tour that has seen him playing private shows in people's living rooms and traveling in a van paid for with donations from fans. This humble touring scheme coincides with Bazan's most recent album, Curse Your Branches, his first full-length under his given name, which has been aptly described as a breakup album, only with God instead of a girl. The record details Bazan's falling out of faith with evangelical Christianity and his subsequent attempts to drown his newfound agnosticism with alcohol. (Neumos, 925 E Pike St, 709-9467. 8 pm, $13, 21+.)
