Fictionist

This is a show with the potential to be one of those “I knew them when” gigs, thanks to the Provo band’s so-far-successful efforts to land on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. The band successfully navigated the first round of voting, and now is one of eight unsigned bands still vying for the honor of being the first unsigned act to grace the rock mag’s cover. And if they get enough votes, they’ll get to play a gig at Bonnaroo, and they’ve created their own contest that could land you at the Tennessee festival with them. Check out the band’s Website for details (Fictionist.com), and in the meantime, check out some of their new songs at this gig in their hometown. The Moth & The Flame, Sunflow open the show. Velour, 135 N. University Ave., 8 p.m., $7
