MUSIC: For the first time in twenty-five years, Devo ('80s pop bastion of neat-looking-yet-ultimately-functionless hats) will take to the stage for the first of two shows at the Phoenix Concert Theatre tonight. They'll be working their way through one album each night, and tonight is the Brian Eno–produced classic Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! (which unfortunately does not include their 1980 breakthrough hit, "Whip It"—that's saved for tomorrow night when they play their second album, Freedom of Choice). Phoenix Concert Theatre (410 Sherbourne Street), 8 p.m., $48.25 (or $99.75 for VIP meet and greet tickets).

LECTURE: United States presidential candidate Ralph Nader is in town. This evening, he'll be giving a lecture on the trading floor of the old Toronto Stock Exchange building, remarking on the upcoming election and discussing what's at stake for Canada. His lecture also includes a Q & A and clips from his new biographical documentary, An Unreasonable Man. Design Exchange (234 Bay Street), 7 p.m., $10.
