Wear your chucks and, for God's sake, don't wash your hair — and you'll fit right in with the crowd rocking out to Manchester Orchestra. The Atlanta five-piece brings an interesting twist to post-punk; their sound is leaner and less processed, the music more kinetic, the vocals having a wider range.

Opening acts include Fun, Audrye Sessions and Winston Audie. 6 p.m. Tues., June 2, State Theatre, 687 Central Ave., St. Petersburg, $11 in advance, $14 day of show, 727-895-3045, statetheatreconcerts.com — Eric Snider
