Iran, a Williamsburg-based rock band made up of those guys you run into everywhere in the neighborhood all the time - who just happen to be some of the raddest musicians ever - plays the Knitting Factory Brooklyn. Fronted by Kyp Malone (TV on the Radio, Rainmaker) and Aaron Aites, it's a guaranteed good time. Arboretum, and War of Northern Aggression open. 9pm.

There's no bad way to donate to the relief efforts in Haiti, but why not have an awesome time while you're doing it? The Arms Around Haiti benefit at Public Assembly has an amazing line up of bands, DJs, and one hilariously funny comedian/beatbox artist. Check out their Facebook to see the full line up. The $10 (or more if you're feeling extra generous) cover gets donated to Doctors Without Borders, and Grand Bwa's relief trip to Haiti. Help these guys reach their $10,000 goal!
Public Assembly, 70 N.6th Street. 8pm - 4am. $10 min.
