Beat The Heat With The English Beat, Go Bang With Glassjaw, Hit The Yard With Dale Watson, Save The Doodles At Mutts and Wake Up For Sleeping With Sirens.

Police departments are really having the most fun at work from the #LipSyncChallenge to setting up dog photo shoots. As if there aren’t more important things to do.

But for real. A cop in New Jersey found a lost dog named Bean, took him back to the station and took a <del>pug-shot</del> mugshot and posted it to the station’s Facebook. Thankfully their heroic measures helped reunite the pup with his fam.

Should you find yourself in a similar situation — that is with nothing better to do, not suddenly in possession of a random dog — we can be your hero, baby.

Glassjaw at Gas Monkey Live
This New York based band first appeared on the scene in 1993, breaking through a few years later with their “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang” single. After that, they took a 15 year break before finally releasing Material Control last year. Don’t miss them this time, you never know when you’ll see them again!

The English Beat at Kessler Theater
The “Mirror in the Bathroom” outfit is touring in support of Here We Go Love, its first studio album since 1982’s Special Beat Service. Going strong for three decades the band has a timeless ska sound that came to life during the OG punk movement.

Boney James at House of Blues
Jazz it up with Boney James! His newest release, Honestly, is the perfect mix of soul, jazz and R&B. Each track is different reflection of James’s personality, collectively uniting to create a more upbeat sound than his previous works.

Sleeping With Sirens at Granada Theater
Can’t sleep this one out! Remember your teenage years going through your “emo phase.” Well that’s over, but you can still jam out to your favorite hits from “Do It Now Remember It Later” to “Don’t Say Anything.” Guess it wasn’t a phase after all.
