• Naomi Punk

This is a great night for punk rock and all the musical satellite genres which orbit punk rock's eternal flame like weirdly mutated moths in an endless mosh pit circle. At 8 p.m. at Siren's Song, Oakland hardcore group Cronander headlines the night, with local openers Dead Drift, Arcata's queer punk group SLOP and Clam Hammer ($5). Meanwhile, at the Miniplex, the melodic and loud punk rock bards of Olympia, Washington, Naomi Punk, hold court at 8:45 p.m., supported by a cast of motley players unique to Humboldt County stages: the magical minstrel Mister Moonbeam and the elect knights errant of heavy tunes, those staid and true bailiffs of buzz and bass, Blackplate ($10/$8 advance). Come one, come all, huzzah and hosanna.
