MUSIC: SADGIRL Despite their name, Los Angeles’ SadGirl is the ideal group to slow dance with your lover this Valentine’s Day. The trio’s lo-fi garage sound is heavily inspired by early rock ‘n’ roll’s doo-wop twang and holds a nostalgic place in the hearts of those who gave rise to the Southern Californian surf-rock house show scene during the mid-2010s. This time around, SadGirl is playing to the hopeless romantics with a three-day run between Pomona, Las Vegas and San Diego—and as the band puts it, they’re giving us three shows, three nights and three chances to fall in love. Joining them at Swan Dive are local rockers Los Emptys and Secos, who know how to get the room moving. 8 p.m., $20+, Swan Dive, swandivelv.com. –Gabriela Rodriguez

MISC: FABULOUS SIN CITY ROLLER DERBY: SEASON 20 OPENER Can’t stop, won’t stop. Las Vegas’ all-volunteer homegrown roller derby league enters its 20th season with a pair of bouts between the league’s four teams: The Notorious VIP skate against the Flying Aces at noon, and the Hoover Damned take on the Atomic Stardust at 2 p.m. If you’ve never seen flat-track roller derby played in person, this is an ideal opportunity; bring a folding chair and savor every thrilling jam, hit and breakaway. And if you’ve never seen true passion in sport, displayed by people who have nothing to gain but the joy of competing, well, you’ve never seen all-volunteer flat track roller derby. Noon, free, West Flamingo Park, sincityrollerderby.org. –Geoff Carter

SPORTS: PICKLEBALL SLAM 3  If the sudden surge of interest in pickleball during the pandemic took you by surprise, you aren’t alone. In the last few years, pickleball has dominated recreational courts; a 2023 report by the Association of Pickleball Players found that more than 40 million Americans had played pickleball at least once in the last year. Also, people love watching it: The first Pickleball Slam aired on ESPN in 2023 with heavy-hitting tennis champs like Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Michael Chang and John McEnroe facing off. Now Pickleball Slam 3 makes its Las Vegas debut with Agassi, Roddick, Genie Bouchard and Steffi Graf returning to take a swing at the $1 million prize. 1 p.m., $60+, Michelob Ultra Arena, axs.com. –Amber Sampson
