[Wednesday, October 22] Randy Newman only records about one non-soundtrack album per decade, probably because his trenchant political pieces remain relevant for years after theyaE™re released. Economic crisis? 1974aE™s aEœMr. President (Have Pity on the Working Man)aE has proven to be a popular request on this tour. Problems overseas? Newman performed the brutally nationalistic satire aEœPolitical ScienceaE on The Colbert Report, some 24 years after it appeared on his album Sail Away. His stage banter alternates between spontaneous wisecracks about crowd behavior and honest revelations (he admits he wrote aEœI Miss You,aE a poignant lament, aEœfor my first wife while I was married to my secondaE) that suggest heaE™s occasionally as emotionally conflicted as his beleaguered characters. Moore Theatre, 1932 Second Ave., 443-1744. 8 p.m., $29.50 - $49.50. All ages. Listen to Mr. President (Have Pity On The Working Man).

Shortly after the release of 2006aE™s Avatar, Comets on Fire went on aEœindefinite hiatus.aE But these divergent paths were what kept the Comet flame burning all along, and the fact that theyaE™ve spent time away from each other should translate into them being even more fired up. Add that to the celebratory nature of the weekend and their set should be like one great blast of hallucinogenic spray across the sky. Comets on Fire play SP20, 6 p.m., Sun., July 13. Listen to the band'sA The Antlers of the Midnight Sun.
