SUPERCHUNK
(Jackpot Records, 203 SW 9th) They may be taking daily baths in all that Merge Records money these days, but Superchunk is back. With a new album—Majesty Shredding, their first since 2001—and tour, the legendary Chapel Hill indie-rock band brings their fuzzball pop to the Wonder tonight, and they're playing an acoustic in-store set in the afternoon as well!

SHINE A LIGHT: GUIDANCE COUNSELOR, WAMPIRE, SALLIE FORD AND THE SOUND OUTSIDE
(Portland Art Museum, 1219 SW Park) For the second fabulous year in a row, the Portland Art Museum turns itself over to the crazy kids at PSU's social practice art program for one brilliant night, called Shine a Light. The artistes put on over a dozen performances throughout the museum, including nude wrestling, beer sampling, and music by Guidance Counselor, Wampire, and Sallie Ford.. Michelangelo, et al., would be proud. And drunk. SARAH MIRK Also see our article on Shine a Light.
