MUSIC—You might know Daniel Lanois best from his numerous production credits (Peter Gabriel, Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris), but he’s run a parallel career with albums of his own, from the gorgeous, folk-flecked Acadie to the remarkable new Flesh and Machine, which warps his trademark guitar-tronics into cosmic testimonials.

COMEDY—Rightfully dubbed “the funniest person on Twitter” and an accomplished author, the whip-smart Rob Delaney is bringing his razor-sharp wit to the Crystal. His anecdotes about married life, kids, and the fucking idiocy of male-dominated politics and pop culture are spot-on brilliant, and will make you feel like a better person for seeing him live. WM. STEVEN HUMPHREY
