Few weeks pack this much range into seven days. Jack White kicks things off with two nights at the Hollywood Palladium while a retooled Sleep, now featuring Melvins drummer Dale Crover, rattles the Wiltern, and Tuesday brings Erykah Badu and The Alchemist to the Hollywood Bowl for Lauren Halsey’s emajendat art-installation spectacle. DARKSIDE settles into Lodge Room for a four-night residency, Social Distortion and Descendents take over the Palladium for two nights, and She & Him revisit their Volume records across two nights at the Orpheum. The Growlers play the Greek on Saturday, and Pentagram closes it all out at 1720 on Sunday.
