SHINING ON
David Gilmour: Live In Pompeii Nearly 45 years after Pink Floyd flexed their prog-rock strength at the same venue, David Gilmour performed at Pompeii on his Rattle That Lock tour. Using lasers, pyrotechnics and cyclorama screen allowed the jaunt to receive accolades from fans and critics, this onenight-only affair celebrates the guitarist as the only musician to perform at the venue twice. The set features a number of Floyd favorites and rarities, as well as a slew of rocking Gilmour solo tunes, which fit in well. Live In Pompeii will appear in 2,000 theaters throughout the country, and if you missed Gilmour’s shows at the Hollywood Bowl, this is a great opportunity to see that he continues to age gracefully. David Gilmour: Live In Pompeii at the Frida Cinema, 305 E. Fourth St., Santa Ana, (714) 285-9422; thefridacinema.org. 7:30 p.m. $7-$10. —DANIEL KOHN

Here’s Looking at . . .
Prost !
Oktoberfest 2017 Summer may be the season for rosé—or, ugh, frosé—but come autumn, it’s all about the beer. German beer, to be precise! This week signals the return of Oktoberfest, and the otherwise sleepy HB corner known as Old World comes alive with a ruckus of beer-drinking, wiener-dog-racing, bratwurst-snarfing, and a lot of live oom-pah-pa music. Shimmy into that lederhosen and get down to the biggest and best German celebration since 1977; Oktoberfest runs until Oct. 29, but Wednesdays and Thursdays are free admission. Oktoberfest 2017 at Old World Village, 7561 Center Dr., Huntington Beach, (714) 895-8020; www.oldworld.ws. 6:30 p.m. Free. —ERIN DEWITT

[CONCERT]
COME BE FREE Seedless
Reggae-rock mainstays Seedless are quintessential Orange County listening—but don’t call them a Sublime tribute band. The group have remained relevant for years, integrating themselves within the California reggae scene and landing themselves steady airplay on KROQ’s Locals Only, as well as at numerous music festivals and acoustic showcases, thanks to their positive lyrics. Fans were shocked when lead singer Casey Sullivan MORE departed in ONLINE OCWEEKLY.COM 2016, but the group continued to soldier on and welcomed Sullivan back earlier this year. Seedless will be closing out the summer season of KROQ’s Locals Only Sunset series, backed with band LAW. Come out and enjoy the warm, sunny late summer vibes. Seedless at the Source OC, 6940 Beach Blvd., Buena Park, (714) 5218858; thesourceoc.com. 7 p.m. Free. 21+. —AIMEE MURILLO

The trajectory of photographer Michael Childers’ career is something to marvel at, if not envy. After starting out as a photographer for National Theatre in London, he became one of the first to shoot for Andy Warhol’s Interview and After Dark magazines, later capturing iconic portrait images of some of the biggest names in entertainment, dance and theater for publications such as GQ, Esquire, Elle, Life, TV Guide and Vogue. Casa Romantica presents a comprehensive exhibit of Childers’ work, including such on-assignment cover subjects as Grace Jones, Paul Newman, Andy Warhol, Elton John, David Hockney and others, as well as his photography for films such as The Terminator, Grease and Coal Miner’s Daughter. Here’s your chance to explore archives of the prolific master’s work up close.
