Slideshows: The Cold War Kids at the Orpheum, Sweet and Tender Hooligans at Detroit Bar

If you were stuck at home with pink eye or the gout this weekend, well, you've got some problems that we can't help you with. But what we can help you with is these wonderful slideshows from some 'certs this past weekend, like Chad Sengstock taking pics of Long Beach-by-way-of-Fullerton indie rock faves Cold War Kids doing their thing at the Orpheum in downtown Los Angeles on Friday. As a bonus, Long Beach's buzz-heavy Crystal Antlers opened.

Pictured up above there is Jose Maldonado of world-famous Smiths cover band Sweet and Tender Hooligans, photographed Saturday at Detroit Bar by Keith May. How could you not click on that, seriously?

Fever Dragon snapped some images of "Call Sick Loves Sucka Free," a Saturday night mash-up of Call Sick on Friday and Sucka Free Sunday at Que Sera in Long Beach. Mmhmm. Take a look! It's in a book! Well, not really. But that's from the Reading Rainbow theme song.
