It’s all the big things this week in CT from blink-182 to Phish to Jerry Seinfeld

The 1960s British teen idol Peter Noone is now a septuagenarian. So is Vicki Lawrence, who has been playing one (“Mama”) since the 1970s.

Also in Connecticut this week, a Sammy Hagar/Loverboy tour recalls the 1980s. Southern California skate punks blink-182 evoke the 1990s and 2000s. Then there’s Phish, whose jams have gone on for decades.

The music goes round and round right up to up-and-comers like Tracheotomy and newly minted arena-filling stars like Billy Strings.

On the comedy front, besides Lawrence there’s Jerry Seinfeld and what might be the last live stand-up go-round for Bill Maher.

You might forget what year it is, but you’ll have a great week.
