Paranormal investigator Cody Polston breaks down the tools, methods, and theory behind ghost hunting in a hands-on master class format, part of Painted Lady's Brews & Boos series leading into Halloween weekend.

Saosin brings their mid-2000s post-hardcore catalog to the Sunshine Theatre, one of the better mid-capacity rooms on the corridor for this kind of show. The Sunshine's floor opens up nicely for a crowd that actually wants to move, and this band still draws the people who grew up with those records. Grab tickets in advance;...
Saosin is marking 20 years of their self-titled debut by playing the whole thing, which for a certain generation of post-hardcore listeners is a genuinely significant setlist promise. Sunshine Theater fits this one well, a standing-room floor that gets loud without losing the songs, and this bill pulls hard enough that the room will be...

Launchpad's room rewards loud guitar bands, and the low ceiling does the work for you on a night like this. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so grab them...
Joanne Shaw Taylor, the British guitarist who started playing professionally at 16 after Eurythmics' Dave Stewart heard her at a festival, brings her full-throated blues-rock to the KiMo on a Tuesday night.
