Filmmaker John Waters used to make fun of the whole swinging-’60s, Summer of Lovedruggie thing. He loved the polar opposite of that whole era’s values: trash and innapropriate humor. The band Drive-Thru Mystics play trippy, acid-soaked ’60s psychedelic rock as though it were reinterpreted by Waters, tongue firmly planted in cheek. It’s Nuggets-compilation era garage rock for the criminally insane, or at least someone who appreciates the fun, campy side of the criminally insane. Drive-Thru’s keyboardROCK ist Jess Goddèsse comes from the legendary Bay Area trash-punk band the Guttersluts, a troupe that could have easily been cast in any of Waters’ films. 1827 I Street, www.facebook.com/ drivethrumystics.

You’ve tried uptight lipliner, sleazy lipgloss and lip plumpers, but nothing fills the void left by the recently suspended indie-music DANCE night, Lipstick! The 12-year-old dance party experienced a twomonth hiatus and, thanks to an onslaught of comments urging DJ Shaun Slaughter (pictured) to bring the boogie back, it returns with a vengeance as a monthly event that grooves every first Saturday of the month. In addition to Slaughter and DJ Roger Carpio spinning their trademark indie rock, indie pop and ’60s soul, The Lipstick Weekender serves as a showcase for local electro-pop band Doom Bird to debut new songs full of lush, synthy sounds and psychedelic melodies. 1901 10th Street, www.facebook.com/ events/192761657495358.

Roger Clyne got his start in the Refreshments, famous for “Banditos” and the King of the Hill theme song. His unsatisfying major-label experience prompted him to go DIY with his next outfit, and he’s cultivated a grassroots fanbase ever since. Clyne’s twangy Southwestern rock possesses a lively, inebriated insouciance that suggests tonight might last forever. The live show reflects an energy and spirit like a graduaROCK tion party—even if it’s only from Saturday night to Sunday morning. This show has a slightly different flavor, with just Clyne and longtime drummer Paul “P.H.” Naffah celebrating Clyne’s tequila brand, Mexican Moonshine. 14500 Musso Road in Auburn, http://azpeacemakers.com.

Bassist Stanley Clarke is an imposing stage presence, consummate showman, and prolific film-score composer who infuses his extensive jazz vocabulary with Latin and rock inflections. Tall, lanky and constantly JAZZ flashing infectious grins, Clarke became a prominent 1970s jazz-fusion pioneer as a member of Chick Corea’s Return to Forever troupe and has since slapped, popped, strummed and fingered his custom electric basses in a variety of band configurations while developing an acoustic-bass intimacy bordering on man-instrument erotica. His current trio includes keyboardist Ruslan Sirota and former Forever drummer Lenny White. 9399 Old Davis Road in Davis, www.stanleyclarke.com.
