Hot Tickets - Weekend Gigs

Jerry Dammers' Spatial A.K.A Orchestra

He got left out of The Specials reunion, but Dammers' current musical guise is rather more forward-looking, blending funk and reggae with Sun Ra-inspired jazz and no shortage of silly costumes.
Tonight, Barbican, EC2 (020 7638 4141, barbican.org.uk)
 
The Eastpak Antidote Tour

This popular package tour of metal and punk bands returns for two nights featuring August Burns Red, The Ghost Inside, Living With Lions, and Florida noisemakers A Day to Remember as headliners.
Tonight, tomorrow, HMV Forum, NW5 (0844 847 2405, kentishtownforum.com)
 
Bob Dylan, Mark Knopfler

Dylan's tour chugs ever onwards and you either get it or you don't. If you want stagecraft, audience interaction and hits sung in the style in which you remember them, avoid. This time there's added interest with Dire Straits' Knopfler tagging along in support.
Tomorrow-Mon, HMV Apollo Hammersmith, W6 (0843 221 0100, hammersmithapollo.net)
 
Foster the People

The LA indie pop trio will most likely save their song Pumped Up Kicks for the encore - a chirpy number about a school shooting that hovered around the lower end of our charts for several months.
Sun, Fri Nov 25, O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire, W12 (0844 477 2000, o2shepherdsbushempire.co.uk)
 
Bush

The grunge latecomers, left, recently re-formed with a couple of new members to release their first album in a decade, and make their London live comeback with three different gigs around town.
Sun, Bush Hall, W12 (020 8222 6933, bushhallmusic.co.uk); Mon, The Scala, N1 (020 7833 2022, scala-london.co.uk); Tue, Relentless Garage, N5 (0844 847 1678, thegarage.co.uk)
