Tonight English electronic act Simian Mobile Disco will be headlining the Mayan Theatre in Downtown. Athens-based folk troubadours the Vic Chesnutt Band are poised to take on the Echoplex with none other than local indie rock outfit Warpaint (LAist Review, #2, #3). And, lastly, LA-bred pop rockers the Like will be gracing the Echo. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Hotel Café to catch Georgia-bred singer-songwriter/producer Butch Walker. LAist favorite, local singer-songwriter Kenneth Pattengale is slated to kick things off.

Tonight there will be a tribute to the legendary Swedish pop group ABBA at the Hollywood Bowl. St. Albans-based English rockers the Zombies are poised to grace the Wiltern with none other than the Yardbirds, who are, of course, noted for starting the careers of three of rock's most famous guitarists: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page. Terry Lynn & John Hugo will be celebrating Jamaican music, performing songs from 2009's It Was Written at Loft Seven in Downtown. And, lastly, Austin-based instrumental rock outfit Explosions in the Sky (LAist Review, #2) will be performing at the Hollywood Palladium with local noise rockers No Age in tow. But we strongly suggest heading out to the Coliseum in Downtown to catch the final night of the 19th annual Electric Daisy Festival—the largest dance festival in North America, which could feature up to "200,000 dancing feet". LAist favorites Simian Mobile Disco are slated to headline.

Sunday night, The Black Ghosts had a late start at Turntable Lab for the release party for their new self-titled album. There was an amiable crowd hanging around in anticipation though, checking out the dj store's collection of street art and photography books, tee shirts and spinning equipment. They were also drinking free Sparks and pocketing free "mixtape" cds from the band.
