Classic Albums Live: Fleetwood Mac Rumours
Standard disclaimer: We look askance at tribute shows like these. THAT SAID, it would be really cathartic to hear the immaculate four-way love/hate songs that formed the tormented Rumours live right about now.
8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 17, at Hard Rock Live, $14-$24
Contour
Hazy, sleep-deprived and sublimely opiated alien soul/trip-hop from this young and prolific South Carolinian. Post-millennium tension.
8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 18, at Spacebar, free
The Digs
Afternoon vinyl swap meet will be soundtracked by a phalanx of DJs spinning live, and your already poor impulse control will be melted down by heady cocktails. What, like savings really mean anything anymore?
4 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 19, at Lil Indies, free
Joe Bonamassa
Blues-rock true believer guitarist hits the road again. We're hoping he airs some tracks from his recent collab with Mahalia Barnes on the Betty Davis tribute album Ooh Yea!
8 p.m. Monday, Feb. 20, at the Dr. Phillips Center, $69-$149
Lolo
Soulful belter is a modern pop Zelig, connected at various points in her life and career with Lisa Marie Presley, Panic at the Disco!, and Talib Kweli.
