Everyone, meet Hannah Montana Miley Cyrus's brother, Trace Cyrus. He's taken his Achy Breaky genetics and taken a sharp left toward electronica with his band Metro Station (MySpace), and he's taken Mason Musso, brother of co-star Michel Musso, along for the ride.

Looking for something to do tonight? February boring you? Feel a primal need to fight the snow and the ice bearing down on our fair city? Check out The Bravery (with guests The Switches and Your Vegas) at the Fillmore at the TLA. No less than the Village Voice has proclaimed them 'New York's Next Big Thing' and the venerable Auntie Beeb called them 2005's (okay, we know it's 2008) most promising act.

If you were one of the dozens of people scrambling for a ticket to the extremely sold out The Hold Steady show at North Star Bar last year who got shut out, listen up: the Brooklyn-based rockers are playing the Fillmore at the TLA tonight, and tickets are available.

Seattlest watches as a S.L.U.T. is born and Seattle Flickr users go nuts over a local art installation. A restaurant critic demands a Diner's Bill of Rights over a gnat next to her drink, and, in lieu of a Portlandist, Seattlest debates with itself over the identity of the Northwest's crown jewel. Seattlest also joins the guys from Fantagraphics for an ill-fated gun party in the woods.

(it's nice, pretty background music, but not nearly as fun as some of their earlier efforts), we're still totally psyched to check out their live show tonight. We've heard they put on a helluva show, and provided they at least play a few of the songs we remember from high school, we'll be perfectly happy.

We'll be honest. The main reason we want to see The Polyphonic Spree is to see how they logistically put together a concert with their twenty-four-plus-member band. Promoting peace with energized anthems and thoughtful ballads, The Polyphonic Spree will impress you with their music and symbolic clothing choices: this time, it's black military-style fatigues, replacing their well-known robes. Tim DeLaughter, the musical director and co-leader, Julie Doyle fuse strings, brass, choir into an exuberant rock-music orgy.
