The Whore Moans are a Seattle punk band that records on former Omahan Mike Jaworski’s Mt. Fuji Records — the same label that released the first two albums by our very own Little Brazil. They’re playing tonight at The Saddle Creek Bar with The Shidiots and The Upsets, and there’s no cover. Show starts at 9.

Also tonight, Slowdown is hosting its Sixth Annual “Goth Ball” with Cloven Path, Army of In Between, Strap On Halo, and Janus. I don’t know the specifics, but something tells me you may want to swing by Hot Topic beforehand and pick up some goth apparel. $15, starts at 9 and is 21-over only.

Tomorrow night, of course, is Halloween, and what better way to spend this fun-loving holiday than by heading down to Slowdown Jr. for a rousing set by David Bazan. If his website is any indication, it looks like the former frontman to Pedro the Lion will be backed by a full band. Opening is Omaha’s current “It” band It’s True and Say Hi. $10, 9 p.m. If I go out at all Saturday night, this is probably where I’ll end up seeing as I generally don’t partake in annual lets-get-fucked-up-in-costumes festivities.

There’s also a punk-flavored bash going on at The Brothers Saturday night featuring 138 and Cordial Spew. $5, 9 p.m. And Cat Island is playing at The Barley St. with Spiders for Love. $5, 9 p.m.
