Critic's Tips:
Detroit Cobras -- at T.T. the Bear's on Friday, July 20. All-out energy from one of the finest garage-rock bands on the planet.
Shaun & Suzy's 14th annual Bastille Day A-Go-Go at the Lizard Lounge on Saturday, July 21. Bastille Day was last week, but Shaun & Suzy revive it at their annual, hard-to-beat party.
Goo Goo Dolls and Lifehouse -- at the Tweeter Center on Sunday, July 22. A smart rock 'n' roll double bill with the Goos and the comeback-in-the-making Lifehouse.
Richie Furay Band -- at the Paradise Rock Club on Sunday, July 22. Anyone remember Buffalo Springfield? They had Neil Young and Stephen Stills, but also Furay, who hasn't been heard from in years, so this should be a fascinating night. And Chris Hillman (Byrds) opens up.
White Stripes -- at Agganis Arena on Monday, July 23. Jack and Meg White bring their color-coordinated, but wildly explosive, sound into this BU arena. Their new album kicks butt.
Chris Cornell -- at the Bank of America Pavilion on Tuesday, July 24. Cornell has fronted Soundgarden and Audioslave -- and brings the best of both acts to his solo tour. He played Avalon not long ago and was terrific.
Swell Season -- at the Brattle Theatre on Wednesday, July 25. The indie film "Once'' has been a pleasant surprise. It stars Glen Hansard (of the Frames), who anchors Swell Season.
The Cat Empire -- at the WBOS Copley Square series on Thursday, July 26. Bring your dancing shoes to this twilight, 5:30 p.m. free concert in the square with these Australian revelers.
