Headliner Lexington Field will be playing tracks from its latest album, &#8220;No Man\u2019s War,&#8221; but anyone who enjoys upbeat music with fiddle, a la the Pogues or Chieftains, will enjoy this group.

On hand will be Ozzy Osbourne tribute band Madman, UFO doppelganger OFU and Iron Maiden impersonators Iron Mayhem. All have deep catalogs worthy of covering, but Ozzy\u2019s music is clearly the biggest attraction. Having crossed over from mere musician to pop-culture icon, even those who have never heard his songs could identify him in a lineup. Madman will perform hits from Ozzy\u2019s solo career, as well as his time with Black Sabbath, giving fans a taste of some of the best rock and roll of the 1970s and \u201980s. <b>\u2022 Madman:<\/b> Saturday, June 8 at <b>Brick by Brick,<\/b> 1130 Buenos Ave. 7 p.m. 21 and up. $10. www.brickbybrick.com The Griffin has teamed up with radio station 91X\u2019s local music show &#8220;Loudspeaker&#8221; for a new Tuesday-night music series. On June 10, 9 p.m., the venue along with DJ Michael Halloran will present The Paragraphs, Subsurfer and recordable covers. All three bands are well worth investigating, but the Paragraphs in particular have a great sound that seems to cross the Doors at their most tribal with a guitar attack that would make the Stooges proud. Music fans will love the night\u2019s low, $5 cover, but if you RSVP in advance to the club\u2019s website, admission is free. <b>\u2022 The Paragraphs:<\/b> Tuesday, June 11 at <b>The Griffin,<\/b> 1310 Morena Blvd. 9 p.m. 21 and up. $5. www.thegriffinsd.com Named after a George Benson tune, eight-piece combo Breez\u2019n has been playing locally since 1995, building up a following through a great selection of dance tunes en route to becoming one of the area\u2019s top dance bands.
