The scruffed-up sneaker company synonymous with rock (see The Ramones for proof) put on this trio of gigs with indie-punks The Cribs (right) up first, then Ghostface Killah, followed by the retooled and gingerless Gallows on the final night. Pre-registration has closed for tickets though, so best hunt and cross your fingers.

The punk-popper plays not one but four dates here as part of her The Truth About Love Tour. After a brief stint as an ill-conceived R’n’B artist, Pink was reborn as a rocky, punky, solo pop star, and has found legions of fans with her stridently independent tunes and lyrics. She’s the pop minx with credibility, and attitude to burn.
