George Michael
Wembley Stadium, HA9
Hopefully the first gigs at the new Wembley will be a good deal less tedious than the FA Cup Final. Michael puts his legal troubles behind him for the weekend to return to the scene of the Wham! farewell concert.
(0870 380 0148 / 0871 230 5463 / 0871 424 1434). Sat 9, Sun 10 Jun, 4pm.

Roots and Shoots
ICA, SW1
The ICA's regular folk and acoustic night plays host to the grimly haunting sounds of Michael J Sheehy, one-time choirboy turned black-hearted crooner.
(020 7930 3647). Tonight, 8pm.

Hadouken!
ULU, WC1
This dayglo bunch make music that sounds like wasps trapped in an Eighties computer console, with yelpy rapping and grime beats thrown in for good measure. Whether you think this is a good thing will depend on how recently you completed puberty.
(020 7344 4444). Tonight, 7pm.

The Only Ones
Shepherd's Bush Empire
London punks playing their first major hometown show since 1982, following a reformation sparked by their best-known song, Another Girl, Another Planet, appearing on a mobile phone ad.
(0870 771 2000). Sat 9 Jun, 7pm.

Pharoahe Monch
Jazz Cafe, NW1
Much-respected if not prolific New York rapper, formerly one half of Organized Konfusion, previewing tracks from this month's solo album Desire - only his second since 1999.
(020 7916 6060). Sun 10 Jun, 7pm.
