Powerman 5000, Xiu Xiu, Woods, Marilyn Manson and other incoming artists

Weird mix of shows this week.
Let’s start with the industrial-rock explosion that’s going to happen this spring, and then again this fall:
The L.A. electronica/punk ’90s band Powerman 5000 plays the Beaumont Thursday, September 13, at 7 p.m. (all ages). Support from Swill, Syn City Cowboys and Razorwire Halo.
And you’ve probably heard by now that Marilyn Manson is headed to the Uptown Theater. See if he has amped up his shock value Wednesday, May 16. Doors open at 7 p.m. doors. (all ages). Tickets are on sale tomorrow at 10 a.m.
The Jackpot hosts two very awesome but very different types of shows this spring. Catch the odd, experimental pop group Xiu Xiu May 22, at 9 p.m. (18 and older). Support from Dirty Beaches. Then, Wednesday, April 25, the psychedelic folk band Woods, performs. Support from MMOSS, 8 p.m. (18 and older).
