BIRDS Atlanta pub rock/punk bastion All Night Drug Prowling Wolves celebrate the release of their brand new, self-titled full-length debut on the Brooklyn-based indie outlet Colonel Records. Labelmates and Brooklyn-based Atlanta transplant Joseph Plunket’s band the Weight makes happy homecoming in support of its latest, greatest country rock album, Are Men.

ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND You can say what you want about the ABB these days, just don’t say anything bad around me. Gregg Allman is a survivor, and even though he is surrounded by mostly second- and third-generation members, he is still the central force of the band. They were Georgia’s greatest band ever, IMHO, and this incarnation is keeping it alive. Repeat show Saturday. $38.50-$93. 7:30 p.m. Chastain Park Amphitheater. 404-233-2227. www.livenation.com. — JK
