More stuff going on in the city: July 16–17 Lowdown Hudson Blues Festival at Arts Brookfield The first night features Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, known for their funky, soulful live performances and for the label, Daptone Records, that two of its musicians formed. The next night, Robert Cray and John Hiatt, who each paid their dues prior to hit-making moments in the 1980s (Smoking Gun and Right Next Door for the former, Bonnie Raitts cover of Thing Called Love and Jeff Healeys of Angel Eyes for the latter), top the bill.

July 17 Queen + Adam Lambert at Madison Square Garden Nobody can replace Freddie Mercury, but Paul Rodgers held his own for several years, touring with Queen (and George Michael performed admirably at the 1992 Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert). Now, American Idol finalist Adam Lambert applies his powerful, wide-ranging voice to Queen classics. For tickets, visit ticketmaster.
