[Has everybody reined in for the holidays? A few more posts, and Buzz Bands will be taking a little break. Meanwhile, here’s how get your Christmas week off to a good start:]

Go see Helen Stellar [pictured] support residents Mere Mortals at Spaceland. … Go see Samuel Stewart support residents Links at the Silverlake Lounge. … Go see Moonrats and VOICEsVOICEs at the Manimal Vinyl residency at the Echo. … Those shows are all free, but not Lady Gaga’s sold-out gig at the Nokia Theatre. Oh, the excitement. … Also: Robin Thicke at Club Nokia; Miso at the Hotel Cafe; It’s Casual at the Viper Room; and Stereofix at the Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa.
