Nightlife
Penguins and Pajamas at Cal Academy

Music
Adele
The show's been sold-out since the second it went on sale, but then it moved to the Greek Theatre in Berkeley. Bets are that at least a few lucky ticketholders won't want to make the trek out to the East Bay, so be on standby to see the sexy songstress live.
When: 8 p.m., Sat. 6/4
Where: Greek Theatre, Hearst Ave. and Gayley Rd., Berkeley, apeconcerts.com
Music
Earth, Wind, and Fire
Go old-school if you don't want to take the chance on Adele. These Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Famers have produced four decades of Grammy-grade work definitely worth the $50-$100 to see them live.
When: 8 p.m., Sat. 6/4
Where: Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, 99 Grove St., apeconcerts.com
