Other Saturday highlights: alt-rock locals DREAMER and CIGAR IN BED hit AS220, and Machines With Magnets in Pawtucket heats up with THE SILKS, hosting their LP fundraiser bash with ATLANTIC THRILLS and special guest DJ TY JESSO (401.475.2655). Start your SUNDAY night (the 11th) at Fête in O-ville at the Punks for a Princess benefit, with THE GOBSHITES, SHARKS COME CRUISIN', BARROOM HEROES, and Irish punk legends THE MAHONES; a $2 door donation will benefit 7-year old Trinity, who is deaf and in need of a cochlear implant, call 401.383.1112. On WEDNESDAY (the 14th), Armageddon Shop presents SOURVEIN, NOOSE, and ELDER at AS220 ($7, all-ages) while the Spot Underground hosts Boston's DOCTOR DOOM ORCHESTRA as part of their Free Funk Wednesdays (18+, call 401.383.7133).

We'd like to salute and shout out hard-rock quartet (and 2011 Best Music Poll victors) KANERKO, who are heading out to Kosovo this week as part of a Goodwill Military tour. Godspeed Al, Kev, Nick, and Anthony!
