Saturday: Bob Marley would have turned 65 on this day, and to honor his memory and his music, there’s a big benefit for Haiti relief at the El Rey Theatre – Dengue Fever, the Lions and Joey Altruda are among the performers. … The buzzy Vivian Girls/Best Coast tour hits the Smell. … On the Strip, After Midnight Project rocks the Roxy, while Warner Drive does the same down street at the Key Club. … Beth Thornley celebrates the release of her new album “Wash U Clean” at the Hotel Cafe. … And it’s Obi Best and Larry Goldings at the Bootleg Theater. … Also:
Scott H. Biram at Spaceland; two shows from They Might Be Giants at Largo; Stars Align at the House of Blues; and Learning Music at Pehrspace.
Sunday: There’s a big benefit called No Cancer – and by big, I mean it includes Darker My Love, No Age, Vivian Girls and Abe Vigoda, among others – but it’s at a secret location. You need to RSVP to get the details and then pony up $10, which sounds like a good deal. … Also: Devon Williams and Moses Campbell at the Smell; Justin Clayton at the Bootleg Theater; My Pet Saddle at Spaceland; and the Shakers at the Viper Room.
