When an indie-pop tripleheader as good as this one scoots into town, missing the gig is not an option. Headlining this Pitchfork dream-bill are emotive rockers Rogue Wave, whose 2005 album, Descended Like Vultures, contained '60s-inspired psych-rock shimmers (and put the kibosh on the Shins comparisons that once dogged them).
