Save for a few rooms like The Bends, St. Petersburg is still without a dingy, sweaty place for rock and roll.

Dirtbag daydreams get a new space to breathe this weekend though when a new DIY space, The Lighthouse, hosts its first show. Expect a few riotous crazy girl moments when jangly rock band Spoiled Rat headlines after sets from fellow rock band Scruff and pop-punk outfit The Don’t Belongs playing in support of a catchy, newish single “Bent.”

There’s no cover, but the gig is 21 and up, and you’ll have to get the address from somebody else. And don’t be a dick when you get there.

Spoiled Rat, Scuff, and The Don’t Belongs play The Lighthouse in St. Petersburg on Saturday, Sept. 9, and you know what to do as far as supporting the venue.
