Eighties rock reunions are all the rage, from the Pixies to Pavement. Back on the road with their core lineup for the first time since 1989, the Butthole Surfers — San Antonio spurs of the early punk ethos, and authors of perhaps the best album title ever (1988's Hairway to Steven) — make it an official trend. MC Trachiotomy and the Psychic Ills open. Tickets $23.50.
