Ska is Dead 4 Tour Off Broadway	Sun., November 8, 7:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
The Ska is Dead 4 Tour may seem morbidly self-aware. After all, ska's third wave crashed at the turn of the millenium when Reel Big Fish went rock, Less Than Jake fired its horn section and teenagers who once clung to the genre's levity found solace in emo's empathy. In reality, the tour’s... More >>

Buffalo Bob Blues Band Backstreet Jazz & Blues	Every week Sunday	Maryland Heights	Music
Sunday nights at Backstreet Jazz and Blues in Westport Plaza always feature a laid back night of blues from both veterans and newcomers to the local blues scene hosted by Buffalo Bob and the Bedroom Blues Band. The intimate surroundings of the club offer the perfect backdrop to an unscripted... More >>

Soulard Blues Band Broadway Oyster Bar	Every week Monday, 9:00pm more dates/times	St. Louis - Downtown	Music
There have been some serious changes in the St. Louis blues scene over the past year. Perennial local favorites Oliver Sain and Johnnie Johnson have passed on, leaving us richer for having known them and their music, yet indisputably poorer in their absence. The departure of Sain and... More >>

David Cook The Pageant	Tue., November 10, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Skinker/DeBaliviere	Music
Although you don’t have to win American Idol to have a viable singing career – heck, for some contestants, losing the reality show has been a reputation boost – the exposure certainly doesn’t hurt. Just ask Kansas City resident David Cook, who made the entire state of... More >>

The Black Crowes The Pageant	Wed., November 11, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Skinker/DeBaliviere	Music
The Black Crowes’ star has always shined brightest in concert. In fact, the Robinson brothers survived slumping album sales and record label woes in the late ‘90s by continuing to tour incessantly -- which eventually attracted the attention of Jimmy Page, with whom the band toured in... More >>

King Khan & BBQ Show Off Broadway	Thu., November 12, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
The King Khan & BBQ Show's new album Invisible Girl, which was released November 3 on L.A. garage punk label In The Red Records, is hyper-stylized vintage rock & roll at its unpretentious and inspired best. The record seamlessly shifts between frantic, three-chord '80s-punk screaming and the... More >>

Boys Like Girls The Pageant	Fri., November 13, 6:30pm	St. Louis - Skinker/DeBaliviere	Music
Pop music is meant to be just that: popular. Boys Like Girls knows this -- which is why it's taken the mantra "go big or go home" and applied it to this year's Love Drunk. The album's eleven caffeine shots are sure to jolt even the most jaded high school girl into total and utter screaming... More >>

Brendan Benson Blueberry Hill	Fri., November 13, 8:00pm	Delmar/ The Loop	Music
The sheer amount -- not to mention overall quality -- of music being released by the Jack White-associated family of vagabond rockers has become somewhat overwhelming. But don't count Raconteurs vocalist/guitarist Brendan Benson as a Johnny-come lately. The Detroit native has been a solo artist... More >>

The Helium Tapes CD Release Off Broadway	Sat., November 14, 9:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
Local scene veteran Sunyatta Marshall (Fred's Variety Group) leads the Helium Tapes, a quartet with a flair for dark-tinted power pop and dense, swirling riffs. The self-titled disc is the band's debut, but several years of gigging has solidified its sound and ethos — most songs begin with... More >>

The Young Republic Antarctica	Sat., November 14, 10:00pm	St. Louis - South City	Music
What happens when an aging pop-punker trades in his half-stack for a banjo and a drum machine? Well, if you're Mike Ingram from mid-'90s Cincinnati pop-punk stalwarts the Scrubs, what results is the Seedy Seeds, a drum-machine-pop-meets-Americana sound. But besides the change in... More >>

Rob Zombie The Pageant	Sun., November 15, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Skinker/DeBaliviere	Music
Rob Zombie used horror to make a life after metal. Now he's returning to the hard rock that made him a commodity, following a stint directing Hollywood major-studio B-movies The Devil's Rejects and the Halloween reboot. In the '90s, both White Zombie LPs went double-platinum before Zombie... More >>

Nellie McKay Kranzberg Arts Center	Wed., November 18, 8:00pm more dates/times	St. Louis - Grand Center	Music
Don't let Nellie McKay's plucky voice and immaculately coiffed blonde mane fool you: She's no throwback. Sure, her latest record, Normal as Blueberry Pie, is a tribute to silver screen legend Doris Day, and her refurbished arrangements feel totally at home with vintage music box waltzes,... More >>
