Cost: $8. Ages: 21+. The Only Children is the latest project from Josh Berwanger, former lead singer of The Anniversary and his wife Heidi-Lynne Gluck, formerly of Juliana Hatfield's band Some Girls. In the late 90s, The Anniversary sold more than 80,000 units for emo-scene stalwarts Vagrant Records (Dashboard Confessional, Saves the Day) and toured with everyone from Modest Mouse to Guided by Voices. Lead singer Josh Berwanger was the broken heart and soul of The Anniversary. Those who appreciated The Anniversary's blossoming from emo to psych-masters on their last record, Your Majesty, will love Berwanger's new project The Only Children. http://myspace.com/theonlychildren

Buckethead is one of the most bizarre and enigmatic figures in American underground and experimental music since Parliament-Funkadelic birthed their bevy of cosmic characters in the mid-'70s. An accomplished multi-instrumentalist best known for his virtuosic command of the electric guitar, Buckethead is one of the instrument's most recognizable contemporary innovators, his rapid-fire riffing, near-robotic fretwork, and idiosyncratic lead lines combining elements of Yngwie Malmsteen, Adrian Belew, Slayer's Kerry King, P-Funk's Eddie Hazel, and avant-improv artist John Zorn's Scud-attack sax abuse. This is a one-man band whose seven-foot tall musical monster creates a funky bass 'n' drum groove.
