Those initials of The FP stand for Frazier Park, a small town in California riddled with gangs — 248 rules the north; 245, the south. These aren't the Boyz N the Hood gangs you're thinking of; these guys are interested only in Beat-offs. That's not the X-rated activity you're thinking of, either; it's the named for competitions of the Beat Beat Revelation video game — this creative film's don't-sue-us equivalent of Dance Dance Revolution.

Beats Antique beats boredom. We’d expect nothing less from a band that bills itself as “live electro-acoustic, heavy bass, belly dancing and roots music.” In advance of its forthcoming album, the aptly titled Contraption Vol. 2, the group cranks up its Animale Mechanique Tour at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 12, at the Diamond Ballroom, 8001 S. Eastern. Tickets are $17-$19. Call 677-9169 or visit diamondballroom.net.

Colin Currie is sure to ’phone in his performance with the Oklahoma City Philharmonic — vibraphone, that is. The percussionist is adept at solos on the marimba, blocks and drum sets, too, so no wonder the event carries the title of Motion & Emotion. Copland and Tchaikovsky are among those on tap for the 8 p.m. Saturday concert at Civic Center Music Hall, 201 N. Walker. Tickets are $25- $52. Call 232-7575 or visit okcphilharmonic.org.
