-- End of Summer Slam Jam for Teens: Are there words prettier than "back to school"? Maybe. But when we start seeing back-to-school commercials and such, we get ever so giddy. And although it sucks to return, kids, a poetry slam by the Youth Speaks performers might help ease you into the semester season. Show goes from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Oakland Public Library, West Auditorium, 125 - 14th Street, Oakland; free.

-- Immigrant: Help this SF indie-rock band pop its CD-release cherry with performances by Apside Dos Troubadores (sic), and popscene's DJ Omar. And, of course, a live set by Immigrant. Show starts at 9 p.m. at Rickshaw Stop, 1155 Fell; $7.
