MUSIC: LIL YACHTY At this point, there’s no limit to what Lil Yachty can do. The 26-year-old Atlanta rapper has defied expectations since he arrived on the scene in 2015. First, he did it with his eccentric brand of mumbly, nursery rhyme trap. Next, he became a fashion icon, modeling Ye’s clothing line in 2016 and Nautica and Urban Outfitters’ seasons ahead of his debut album, Teenage Emotions. Then he became a pro video gamer, joining FaZe Clan, one of the most decorated esports teams in the industry. But Lil Yachty’s greatest feat would be transitioning into a full-blown psychedelic rock star with January’s Let’s Start Here. Lil Yachty steps into a risky new era on this instrumentally rich LP that lets his funk flag fly. The presence of spacey synths and ambient, atmosphere-changing guitar work puts him leagues above other rappers. Lil Yachty told Variety he had Tyler, the Creator’s Igor in mind when he created Let’s Start Here. Considering the color and depth of it, we can only imagine what the live show has in store.

ARTS: INDECENT When Yiddish playwright Sholem Asch’s God of Vengeance came to Broadway in 1923, its run was cut short when the entire cast, producer and theater owner were arrested on obscenity charges. The story revolves around a Jewish couple who run a brothel and are trying to find a suitor for their daughter to marry. Meanwhile, their daughter is having a lesbian relationship with one of the brothel’s prostitutes. A Public Fit’s Ann-Marie Pereth and Joseph Kucan direct the theater’s very first musical, an adaptation of Paula Vogel’s 2015 play Indecent, which is based on the entire controversy that God of Vengeance stirred up. Thru 11/20, days and times vary, $40, Super Summer Theatre Studios, apublicfit.org. –Shannon Miller

MUSIC: THE BUTTERTONES Smash Mag is kicking off Halloween weekend with “A Nite of Haunted Madness” at Fremont Country Club. Cinematic surf rockers The Buttertones will be headlining the gig and casting a spell on attendees with their atmospheric stage presence as they have before. Supporting the main act are a slew of talented local acts who fit the bill perfectly. Local dream-gaze band Francia dropped a full length instrumental album earlier this year and is sure to get bodies moving. Jonetsu will deliver its self-described "math rock/jazz fusion" blend. Los Emptys will be serving up some Eastside-born indie surf rock and Secos’ early-2000s New York City alternative rock sound never disappoints. Costumes and dancing shoes are encouraged. 8 p.m., $20-$50, Fremont Country Club, seetickets.us. –Gabriela Rodriguez

MISC: FILM: PHANTASM It began with a nightmare Don Coscarelli had as a teenager—a terrifying, claustrophobic vision of being pursued down a corridor by a flying chrome sphere that he feared would drill into his head. Several years later, he scraped together a shoestring budget to make 1979’s Phantasm, a surrealist horror film about how young people react to death and, yes, how they react to chrome spheres hellbent on drilling out their brains. Coscarelli recruited his friend Angus Scrimm to play the Tall Man, the creepiest mortician ever to single-handedly hoist a coffin into a hearse, and a cult classic was born. While Coscarelli has made a good number of cult favorites since Phantasm, including 1982’s The Beastmaster and 2002’s Bubba Ho-Tep, the Tall Man keeps calling him back (“Boyyyyy!”) for sequels; we’re currently up to four of them. Following a restored 4K screening of Phantasm at the Beverly Theater, Coscarelli will sit for a Q&A about his immortal creation. Should be a ball. 7:30 p.m., $10, Beverly Theater, thebeverlytheater.com. –Geoff Carter

MUSIC: WESTERNER When’s the last time you danced? Los Angeles indie rock trio Westerner has plans to loosen up those hips. The band’s second album, 2022’s Kali Yuga Kama Sutra, prevails as a colorful plumage of pop, aglow with hints of neo-psych, disco rock and funk. Westerner nimbly covers a lot of ground here, and certainly has a great time doing it. Unreal City, the trio’s 2014 debut, was a sci-fi concept album that boldly introduced characters and a whole canon that existed within those 16 tracks. These works call for a level of immersion that Sand Dollar Lounge undoubtedly delivers. Now the question is, who’s your dance partner?
