Every Thursday morning KGMB9's Malika Dudley and Byron Furukawa give their tips on what's happening "Around Town" on KGMB9 Sunrise. Their recommendations for this week:

Malika: There are two rock concerts to talk about. The first is the hard-rock band Taking Back Sunday tonight at Pipeline Café. Critics are calling their latest CD, "New Again" their best yet.

Byron: The other show isn't until Oct. 18, but tickets go on sale Saturday to catch Aerosmith at Blaisdell Arena.

Malika: If hip-hop is more your style, Blue Scholars will be at the Loft Gallery and Lounge.

Byron: And, for all you foodies, the Rehabilitation Hospital of the Pacific is having their Joy of Food and Wine fundraiser at the Halekulani Hotel on Monday. Have a good weekend and we'll see you "Around Town!"
