(BASH) To celebrate the completion of The Stranger's fourth annual Strangercrombie holiday gift auction, the Showbox hosts the humongous Strangercrombie Holiday Blowout. Mingle with your fellow merrymakers! Thrill to live performances by Common Market, Wheedle's Groove, Band of Horses, and Fruit Bats! Gape in horror at Dina Martina! All proceeds benefit Northwest Harvest, so there's absolutely no reason to miss the feel-good holiday bash of the season. (Showbox, 1426 First Ave, 628-3151. 7 pm, $5 adv/$7 DOS, www.ticketswest.com, 21+.) DAVID SCHMADER
