Primus and the Chocolate Factory

If you’re totally tweaked to see Primus touring in their original configuration but a little bummed they’ll be covering the Oompa Loompa-filled soundtrack to 1971’s Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory instead of taking you through the wondrous worlds of their own creation (the Seas of Cheese, the Punchbowl, et al), have no fear. Apt for a tour inspired by a movie about a “man who suddenly got everything he always wanted,” the band opens with a set of classics and closes with a tour through their brown-as-Hershey return to elaborately staged, technically demanding lunacy. $39.50-$44.50, 8pm, Monday, Majestic Theatre, 224 E Houston, (210) 226-3333, majesticempire.com
