New stuff from M.I.A., some songs that are part of the McCartney at the White House event showing on public TV next week (and some that are not). And more dance music than usual.

But also a lot of music that heralds shows locally this weekend, from Ozomotli (tonight, the Meadows) and Janelle Monae (tonight, Bushnell Park) to Hot Tuna (tonight at the Shubert in New Haven), Modest Mouse (Saturday at the Oakdale) and especially the Flaming Lips (Saturday, Mountain Park, Holyoke, Mass.).
