Weirdly, seeing as how White Stripes head dude Jack White is the member of this Beatles-y garage rock band that everyone knows, tickets are still available for both nights of these shows.

Still riding the buzz of 2006 debut The Loon, Minneapolis quartet Tapes ’n Tapes ups the ante with latest Walk It Off (XL), reeling in rambunctious indie rock with help from Mercury Rev’s Dave Fridmann. Local trio White Denim, hot off a European tour, returns with its freewheelin’ blend of neo-psychedelia and soulful garage pop. Grab a copy of the trio’s Fall Tour ’08 LP. – Austin Powell

Two nights of Minneapolis duo Atmosphere on the outside stage make for some of the best live hip-hop around. As Rhymesayers royalty, MC Slug brings his no-holds-barred storytelling to life over DJ Ant’s array of beats, ranging from the backyard breaks of 2007’s Strictly Leakage EP to ’02’s morose God Loves Ugly. Their sixth LP, When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold, is a steady dose of both moods. – Chase Hoffberger more at austinchronicle.com

Despite hit-or-miss debut Broken Boy Soldiers, Jack White and the Raconteurs stormed Austin City Limits Music Fest 2006 like a seven-nation army, even firing off a cover of Nancy Sinatra’s “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down).” The supergroup reloads Friday night (Saturday is sold out) with latest Consolers of the Lonely, a dynamic combination of Brendan Benson’s best melodramatic ballads and garage blues. Raleigh, N.C.-based retro-rockers Birds of Avalon fly first. – Austin Powell more at austinchronicle.com
