It’s Thanksgiving week, and you know what that means. Aside from the good eats and love being spread around this Thursday, this also marks the start of a very slow time of year for concerts. From here through the new year, shows take a slump, but Grimy Goods relentlessly searches the interwaves and our emails to deliver only the best concerts happening in and around Los Angeles. This week we have Kitten, Mr. Gnome, OFF!, OBN III’s and Ariel Pink coming through. On the mainstream tip we have the iconic Fleetwood Mac and the lady-pleaser, Justin Timberlake. Take your picks! Check out our show list below for what’s hot.
