The Saschall now renamed Obihall is one of the famous theatres in Florence used for events. One can watch concerts of all types. Apart from the main events my advice is to have an experience and watch the local bands perform. There are both groups well known in Italy as well as known more in the region.
I will leave you a link of the calendar of 2012 to choose from here. On the 20th of January there is the Bandabardò.A very special event to take part in since this band is from Florence. They play folk and their songs speak of music. The show begins at 21:00 and the tickets cost 12€.
Since November the famous Saschall theatre has changed its name to Obihall. Obi the new partners are a German company leaders in Europe for home improvement material and products for gardening.
How to get there:
By car: Coming from outside Florence take the exit from A1 called Firenze Sud. After the toll go straight just following the road. After the bridge over the Arno Varlungo at the traffic lights turn left. After 300 meters there is the Theatre on the left, in front of the RAI headquarters. The area has a large parking space.
