5 more shows of note*

* — except Arroyo Seco Weekend, which we already told you about

► Not unlike his performance at last fall’s Desert Trip, Roger Waters’ “Us + Them Tour” is proving to be a spectacle. He visits Staples Center on Tuesday and Wednesday. Tickets.
► If you haven’t yet checked out the new Frogtown venue Zebulon, Thursday is a good opportunity. Sixty-nine-year-old Martin Rev headlines in support of his new album, “Demolition 9,” his first release since the death of his Suicide bandmate Alan Vega. Tickets.
You want free concerts?  Included on this week’s slate is La Luz, playing on Saturday as part of the Off the 405 series at the Getty.
► Thursday’s !!! (Chk Chk Chk) show at the Echoplex isn’t sold out yet? And we thought you liked to party. Tickets.
► And baseball fans know Barry Zito as a free-spirited left-handed pitcher who spent 15 years in the big leagues and won the Cy Young Award in 2002. As a singer-songwriter, he sounds country. He plays the Hotel Café on Sunday night. Tickets.
