Hey, big shot, it’s Thursday:

‣ Morrissey’s hotly anticipated tour arrives in SoCal – Wednesday’s show in San Jose seemed a good start – as he visits the Observatory in Orange County, with Kristeen Young opening.
‣ Minneapolis hip-hop duo Atmosphere visit the Roxy Theatre behind their new album “Southsiders.” Above, the new video for “Camera Thief.”
‣ Malaysian singer Yuna headlines the Troubadour behind her new album “Nocturnal,” with Misun opening.
‣ Tycho does a second night at the Fonda Theatre, supported by Gardens and Villa.
‣ With his debut album on the way, Riff Raff heads up the party at the House of Blues. Apparently there will be pizza involved.
‣ La Sera, whose album “Hour of the Dawn” comes out next week, rocks the Echo, supported by Springtime Carnivore and Colleen Green.
‣ And J Litt celebrates the release of his new EP “TOOJLITTTOQUIT” with a show downtown at the Lexington (129 E. 3rd St.).
