OCT. 8: Pauly D at Fur Nightclub
If getting down with Paul DelVecchio and a bunch of Jersey Shore-obsessed fans is your thing, I won't judge. Last time Pauly D was in town, he played to a sold-out house. He'll be spinning house, pop, rock and top 40. $25.
OCT. 22: Gabriel and Dresden at Fur Nightclub
The house/trance duo from San Francisco reunited earlier this year, after a three year split. Their New York reincarnation at Electric Zoo in September proved time apart working on individual projects only honed their skills. $50.

OCT. 26: Moby at Fillmore Silver Spring
Moby's latest album Destroyed dropped earlier this year. Let's let him describe it! "[B]roken down melodic electronic music for empty cities at 2 a.m.," Moby writes. "The music was all originally written late at night while on tour, as I often have insomnia and spend a lot of times awake in hotel rooms at 2 a.m. when everyone else in the world seems to be asleep." $30. 7 p.m.
Moombahton Massive VIII at U Street Music Hall
Moombahton all night featuring Craze, Tittsworth, Sabo, Billy the Gent & Cam Jus, and Thomas Blondet & Obeyah. $6 Adv/$8 Door.
