HAGMAN RELEASE GIG
Infamously rugged local rock star Brian Hagman returns to the stage after a run-in with the law. Expect the singer to unleash three months worth of anti-authoritarian angst tonight when his band, Black Lamb, plays the Larimer Lounge, 2721 Larimer St. With Workhorse, Half of Zero and Deadlock Frequency. 9 p.m. $7.
TRUE BLUE BIRTHDAY
Spirits should be high tonight at Quixote’s True Blue, 2637 Welton St., when the Grateful Dead tribute band One True Favor helps this popular neo-hippie hangout celebrate its ninth anniversary. 9 p.m. $6.
SILENCE IN CONTEMPT
This violin-driven rock band fuses influences ranging from Led Zeppelin to Kate Bush. Catch them tonight with Meniskus and Jeffrey Harrison and the Heretics at Cricket on the Hill, 1209 E. 13th Ave., 9 p.m. $5.
DENVER GENTLEMEN
Players from some of the area’s most talented and long-standing indie rock bands come together in this group, which seems to disband every time one of the members’ other bands generates more success. Catch this rare show Satuday at the Mercury Cafe, 2199 California St., with tempel 1 and Orbit Service. 7 p.m. $6.
