MUSIC—LA’s Together Pangea make rock ‘n’ roll as the devil intended: loud, snotty, and full of piss and vinegar. Their latest album, Badillac, is a maturation of sorts (that is to say, this one doesn’t contain a song called “Too Drunk to Cum”), but their raucous live show is as nuts as ever. Expect beer to spill on your shoes. NED LANNAMANN

BIRD WATCHING—Each year, the sun grows chilly, the days are slowly snipped at the margins, and the elegant Vaux’s Swifts return to the Chapman Elementary School chimney, where they swarm and pirouette for hours before finding a night’s rest. Often a raptor of some sort starts picking them off in the middle of it all—which is when things really get good. Nature! DIRK VANDERHART
