Sat, April 9, Greg Ginn and the Royal We
Naked Lounge, 8:30 p.m., $6
Anyone who has run a record label knows that attracting real talent is a much harder task than simply releasing a flurry of releases. Greg Ginn founded the now-boutique SST Records and delivered a catalog that would put others to shame: From Sonic Youth to Dinosaur Jr., the Minutemen to Firehose, Hüsker Dü to Bad Brains, there was a little something for everyone. Although his records have gone in and out of print more times than he’d care to admit, his output is unrivaled. He’ll turn 57 this year and is touring yet again with his own band. 1111 H Street, www.gregginn.com.
