It’s a busy week in Los Angeles this weekend, not to mention popular, as two of the below shows have already sold out! Don’t fret, though; where there’s a will, there’s a way (read: craigslist), and whether your tastes run to British pop vixens or more towards classical electronica, THE POP FIX has the scoop on the best concerts of the weekend.

Estelle – House of Blues @ Anaheim 03/06/09

DOORS OPEN @ 7:00PM

Nominee for the 2008 Mercury Prize and winner of a Grammy for the ubiquitous hit “American Boy,” British R&B singer/rapper Estelle takes a trip to Disneyland this Friday night. With her cross-continental vibe and distinctive vocals, Estelle is a one-of-a-kind in the pop world today. And who knows; maybe Kanye will take a break from his new squeeze to pop in for a few verses.

Slipknot with Coheed & Cambria and Trivium – The Forum 03/07/09

DOORS OPEN @ 7:00PM

Take a trip back to the turn of the century with Iowa-based nu-metal band Slipknot, who take the stage at the Forum in all their masked glory Saturday night in support of their new album, the optimistic All Hope Is Gone. For those who like their rock more cerebral or faster, both Coheed & Cambria and thrashers Trivium, respectively, are slated to perform. Don’t hurt yourself in the mosh pit, kids!

M83 with the Los Angeles Philharmonic – Walt Disney Concert Hall 03/07/09

DOORS OPEN @ 7:00PM

Frenchman Anthony Gonzalez has been making quietly beautiful music since 2001, but his brand of shoegazing electronica with a tinge of ‘80s romanticism has never received as much critical acclaim as his most recent album, the John Hughes-worshipping Saturdays = Youth , did, placing on numerous “best-of” lists. Combine Gonzalez’s wispy vocals and ambient electronica with the consummate professionals of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and you have an indie lover’s wet dream and the makings of an epic show.

Walt Disney Concert Hall

111 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90012
