PEARLS
If you’re in the vicinity of Pearl Street Nightclub this weekend, you have some tough choices to make. The best plan is to go Friday and Saturday. Friday sees the convergence of roots reggae and rock with a bill topped by Tribal Seeds. Saturday, Pearl Street hosts an indie rock legend, Bob Mould. Mould fronted Husker Du, with its beautifully distorted wall of punk sounds. These days, he’s touring with the Bob Mould Band. www.iheg.com
