Fall Out Boy
Like emojis and hoodies, F.O.B. seems to have found a permanent spot in the lives of modern American teens, even as its members enter middle age and the band itself turns 16. The Chicago area pop-punkers delayed the release of their latest album, "Mania," until January but are going ahead with their fall tour, including a newly announced appearance at the KDWB Jingle Ball on Dec. 4. You'll get the full shebang at this show, though, plus opening sets by hip-hop producer/rapper Blackbear and Will Smith's and Jada Pinkett-Smith's rapping son Jaden Smith. (7 p.m. Sun., Xcel Energy Center, St. Paul, $28-$105, ticketmaster.com.)
Trombone Shorty
There's no need for seats when this rock star of the New Orleans jazz/funk/soul scene comes to town, which makes the Palace's general-admission floor the perfect fit for him. Troy "Shorty" Andrews and his band Orleans Avenue are touting the slower-grooving, R&B-heavy Blue Note album "Parking Lot Symphony," which includes their hit remake of Allen Toussaint's "Here Come the Girls." For extra funk-and-grind support, locally beloved California soul-rock band Vintage Trouble opens. (8 p.m. Fri., Palace Theatre, 17 W. 7th Place, St. Paul, $37-$42, eTix.com.)
