Whether you’re headed back to school, staying on your grind, or just hangin’ out, it’s a great week to get together with some friends and sing along to some fun tunes. Boston’s own riff monsters Pretty & Nice will be hitting up Cambridge’s Middlesex Lounge to bring the jams late into the night. Bobby from Joan Of Arc will be cranking out lo-fi feels under his Love Of Everything moniker all the way from Chicago, and local pop punkers Earthquake Party! will be kicking off a short East Coast tour. This shindig was put together by Sippy Cup Everything and Rogue, so you know it’s gonna be legit. The Middlesex Lounge (315 Massachusetts Ave.) is located on the MIT campus in Cambridge, just a short ride over the bridge on the 1 bus – and it’s only $5 for admission to this gnar punk show. What’s your excuse? Have a blast! 9pm, 21+

P.S. If you can find tickets, LA doom lords Sunn O))) will be decimating the Coolidge Corner Theater (290 Harvard St.) with Atlanta’s sludgy grinders Dead In The Dirt. Sold out! 10 PM, all ages
