Happy Friday, we’re full up with good shows:

‣ With their sophomore album “Here” due at the end of the month, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros take on the Greek Theatre. Early arrival recommended for opener Aaron Embry.
‣ Lindsey Buckingham does a one-man show at the Wiltern, performing songs from his recent solo release “Seeds We Sow” along with Fleetwood Mac favorites and some of his other solo material.
‣ A.A. Bondy and Father John Misty join all the mammals at First Fridays at the Natural History Museum.
‣ Coldplay is back for another night at the Hollywood Bowl, supported by Metronomy and Pierces.
‣ Cut Copy bassist Ben Browning headlines the Central SAPC in Santa Monica behind the release of his solo EP “Lover Motion.” That’s the video for Browning’s “I Can’t Stay,” above. Blondfire and Warships open tonight’s show.
‣ With the release of the third album “Neck of the Woods” (and a date at the KROQ Weenie Roast over the weekend) on the horizon, Silversun Pickups warm up at the Observatory in Santa Ana.
‣ And some nifty local shows – Dante vs. Zombies, Dirty Ghosts and the Dead Ships team up at the Satellite.
‣ And Alain Johannes, Irontom and Blowing Up the Moon play El Cid.
