Tonight In Rock: No Doubt, N*E*R*D, Company Of Thieves, The Polyamorous Affair

Our Pick: The Polyamorous Affair's record release, Dios, Rough Kids @ Loft 265 (265 S. Main St., Los Angeles)
Tonight Anaheim-based ska-infused pop outfit No Doubt will be headlining the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater twice with Grammy-nominated pop punk outfit Paramore and Swedish new wave rockers the Sounds in tow. Virginia Beach-based funk/hip hop group N*E*R*D are poised to take on the Avalon. And, lastly, Chicago-based pop rock trio Company of Thieves are poised to grace Spaceland. But we strongly suggest heading over to Loft 265 in Downtown to catch local "bohemian glam" duo the Polyamorous Affair. LAist favorites Dios (LAist Interview, Review, #2) are slated to kick things off.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
