Tonight's high-energy acts have stage presence in spades: Francis and the Lights' titular frontman channels David Byrne's theatrical gyrations with plenty of percussion and just a touch of yacht-rocking smoothness; Baby Dayliner's Ethan Marunas raps with studied detachment over '80s synth beats; and mayhem ensues as rock funboys the Giraffes get fists pumping (with middle fingers outstretched) to alt-metal anthems like "Having Fun with Assholes." Feel free to act recklessly — in fact, we insist.
