• Concert: Wilco at Brooklyn Bowl

  Over the years they’ve been called an “alternative-country” act, an “American Radiohead” and, unfairly, a “dad-rock” outfit. But Wilco has only ever been one thing: a rousing rock ’n’ roll band built on thoughtful songwriting, Jeff Tweedy’s love of sonic experimentation and a virtuoso gang of players. Stealing a look at previous setlists from the band’s Ode to Joy tour, Vegas might be in for a career-spanning dip into Wilco’s peerless catalog. October 22, 6:30 p.m., $60-$80, ticketweb.com. –Geoff Carter

• Concert: Erykah Badu at Craig Ranch Park

  The Amp at Craig Ranch Regional Park in North Las Vegas was just getting started with concerts and community events when the pandemic paused its development.

Washington state R&B singer Allen Stone opens. October 24, 7 p.m., $65-$150, etix.com. –Brock Radke

• Party: Zhu at Ayu Moonbeam

  If you want a head start on EDC weekend, Ayu Moonbeam has you covered. Grammy-nominated electronic music producer Zhu brings the rave to the club with new release Dreamland 2021, an experimental quarantine album rife with Zhu’s particular brand of gritty techno and smoothly polished house. It’s a recipe for dance, so get to memorizing the steps. October 21, 5 p.m., $30-50, zoukgrouplv.com. –Amber Sampson

Gaddis; “Our Time,” choreographed by the company’s ballet master Don Bellamy; “Shards” by Donald Byrd; and Alvin Ailey’s “Night Creature.” October 22-23, 7:30 p.m., $10-25, Charleston Heights Art Center, 702-229-6383. –Geoff Carter
