Friday’s fun things:

‣ Psych-pop five-piece Mystic Braves [pictured] close out a big year with a show at the Echo, joined by Mr. Elevator & the Brain Hotel, Drinking Flowers and Levitation Room.
‣ Fishbone, celebrating 25 years as a band this year, stages its third annual “Crazy Glue XXXmas” show at the Troubadour, supported by Mike Dillon Band, the Bots, Lonnie Marshall and Rap Sabbath.
‣ Local quintet Bear On Fire heads up the lineup at the Satellite – get there early for Archer Black and Twin Oaks.
‣ The all-star outfit Royal Machines (fka Camp Freddy) does the first of two nights at the Roxy Theatre, supported by  Rebel Hotel.
‣ And it’s your hedge against holiday grouchiness, the Dan Band, at Club Nokia.
