Brasa: If youaE™re the type whoaE™d put a pig in a blender and drink it, youaE™ll be building a shrine to Tamara Murphy, whose treatment of all things porcine borders on the transcendent. Start with a melting braised guanciale, served slumped over black lentils and crowned with a poached quail egg. Order a half portion of the paprika-spiked Portuguese pigaE”a brothy mix of chorizo, pulled pork, clams, and potatoaE”and you might be able to arrange a few spoonfuls of pillowy goat-cheese gnocchi in between. Brasa may not be new, but with an ever-changing menu, inventive takes on local grub (creamed nettles, anyone?), and a palate peppered with smoky Iberian flavors, the experience is always fresh. And who doesnaE™t like a restaurant where half the servers look like Sinead OaE™Conner? Note by JESS THOMSON; Serves: dinner. 2107 Third Ave., 728-4220. BELLTOWN, brasa.com

Michael Schenker, Wednesday, July 8: With his signature black-and-white Flying V in hand, Michael Schenker has easily had as much, if not more, of a stamp on heavy rock as his more visible older brother, Scorpions guitarist Rudolf Schenker. His flightiness as a member of the Scorpions and UFO (as well as missed bids to join Aerosmith and Ozzy) sealed SchenkeraE™s fate as a cult act in the U.S. But thataE™s not a bad thing, as the artistic integrity of his body of work still stands. Unlike the majority of his guitar-shredder brethren, in his prime Schenker had a knack (not unlike Ronnie Montrose) for showcasing the interplay of his supporting musicians, rather than shred to the detriment of the music. Which is not to say that Schenker didnaE™t shred, just that he was able to tuck his technical chops into the invigorating drive of heavy blues-rock. The inclusion of one of his songs on the Metallica edition of Guitar Hero isnaE™t likely to make Schenker a household name any time soon, but a recent clip of a young girl rocking his aEœCaptain NemoaE on a Japanese TV show hints at his renown in other markets. With Doug Doppler, A Lesson in Chaos, Choker. Studio Seven, 110 S. Horton St. 286-1312.. 7 p.m. $23 adv., $25 dos. All ages. Note by SABY REYES-KULKARNI
