The Stranger

Tonight brings the inaugural Stoked on Christmas, a brand-new old-timey variety show hosted by ace DJ Sam Rousso and beloved bearded rocker Spencer Moody. The gentlemen promise music, jokes, magic tricks, and "a sheen of inscrutable wonderment/wondrous inscrutability." More specifically: gorgeously somber songs by Tiny Vipers; Jenn Ghetto (formerly of Carissa's Wierd); "big gay adventure band" Your Heart Breaks; something from Adé, the long, tall, poker-faced diva whose voice soars so high, the oxygen gets thin up there; and several more. Seattle has a new holiday habit. (Odd Fellows Hall, 915 E Pine St, advance tickets at the Anne Bonny, 534 Summit Ave E. 7 pm [all ages], 10 pm [21+], $20.) by Brendan Kiley
