1) The experimental psychedelic alt-rock band The Flaming Lips, spawned in 1983 in Oklahoma’s tornado country, storms into Pittsburgh once again for a concert at Stage AE. The Flaming Lips stand as one of the genre’s most accomplished and revered acts, and their shows provide a can’t-miss experience that expertly combines visual and auditory stimulation through rhythmic lines and a trippy, syncopated light show. (Their 2010 concert at the late Station Square Amphitheater, where frontman Wayne Coyne stopped the concert to listen to a passing train, is the stuff of legend.) The band had a hit with “She Don’t Use Jelly” in 1993 and rose to further prominence with 1999’s The Soft Bulletin and 2002’s Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. The latest of their 16 studio albums is American Head, released in 2020. Their awards include three Grammys, and The Lips shared a 2018 Tony Award nomination for “Tomorrow Is,” part of the original score for SpongeBob SquarePants: The Broadway Musical. The Stage AE show features a commemorative reenactment of the Yoshimi Battles LP. Doors open 7 p.m. 400 North Shore Dr., North Shore. (E.C., M.V.)
2) For four Saturdays every summer and fall, Walnut Street in Shadyside shifts its focus from the usual bustling bevy of bistros and boutiques to putting a bit of music in the air, courtesy of the Shadyside Chamber of Commerce. The annual Jam on Walnut series brings some big names out for free concerts that stop traffic and pack the street. Tonight’s edition features the dance band Dancing Queen. All of the Jams On Walnut are free to attend. 7 to 11 p.m. 5442 Walnut St., Shadyside.
