It’s Friday, so act like it:

► It’s the Natural History Museum’s final First Fridays of 2015, and Hanni El Khatib, Avid Dancer and Chicano Batman team up for a special show. Above, Hanni El Khatib’s new video for the single “Melt Me.”
► The Rentals’ “Lost in Alphaville” tour comes to the Rel Rey Theatre, with Rey Pila and Radiation City supporting.
► U.K. rockers Palma Violets visit the Teragram Ballroom behind their new album “Danger in the Club.”
► Orange County-bred metal guys Of Mice & Men rock the Wiltern behind their latest album “Restoring Force.”
► At the Hollywood Bowl, it’s Brad Paisley and his “Crushin’ It World Tour.”
► L.A.-bassed Aussies Miami Horror [pictured below] headline the Roxy Theatre behind their new album “All Possible Futures,” supported by De Lux and Dirty Radio.
► Ireland’s Villagers play the Echo behind their new album “Darling Arithmetic,” supported by Tall Tales & the Silver Lining. (Early show.)
► And L.A. garage-rock progenitors the Standells headline the Satellite, supported by the Sloths. There’s a surprise guest on tap too; if we find out, we’ll let you now.
