We're still mad at Eugene for dumping China Forbes. Yeah, we know the vocalist is just singing a song on a Pink Martini album, but we want to find the jerk and ask him why he did it. Moving on. The same album has a luscious recording of "Tea for Two" by legend Jimmy Scott. The exotic Oregon-based band was started in the '90s by Harvard grad Thomas M. Lauderdale and Forbes. Incorporating Latin, jazz, cabaret, film scores, and more, the group has a studio album due out in this fall and a live record coming next year. Why did Eugene do that to her? 8 p.m. $40-$65. The Boston Opera House, 539 Washington St., Boston. 877-598-8497. www.livenation.com
