Why did everyone and their mother book an awesome show this weekend? Let’s rattle them off.

The almighty Hot Water Music return to NYC. The lineup includes Thursday and Late Night Wallflower favorites Paint It Black. The show goes down at the huge, 3,000 cap. Terminal 5.

Alkaline Trio and American Steel are playing a sold out show at Irving Plaza the same night. I don’t know about you, but having the Trio and HWM in town on the same night but on different bills just feels wrong to me.

The F Yeah Fest makes two stops in town this weekend. The Circle Jerks, Dillinger Four, Matt and Kim, Team Robespierre will play Saturday in Manhattan at Highline Ballroom and Sunday at Club Exit in Brooklyn.

Trash Talk will be at Fortress Of Solitude on Saturday.

Matt and Kim will also be playing with a 22 piece orchestra on Sunday at McCarren Pool with The Breeders.

Am I forgetting anything else?

Now this, ladies and gentlemen, is a tour! Psych-rockers Health and 8-bit weirdo-dancers Crystal Castles are set to take over the U.S. in a tour of epic proportions. Starting in March, the two will be criss-crossing the country in support of their latest efforts: Health’s self-titled album already out on Lovepump United, and Crystal Castle’s upcoming full-length due out March 18th. Heck, the two like each other so much they currently have a split remix single out now on Lovepump (for real though, Crystal Castle’s remix of Health’s “Crimewave” is seriously amazing) . Check out the dates after the jump.
