Stephen Bruton 70th birthday celebration at Saxon Pub

Date - 8 p.m. Nov. 6. 

Price - $15. 

Location - 1320 S. Lamar Blvd. thesaxonpub?.com.

You might call the Saxon the house that Stephen Bruton built, given how many musicians followed the late Austin songwriter/producer to the South Lamar venue after he started playing there around two decades ago. Bruton died of cancer in 2009, but on the eve of what would have been his 70th birthday, Saxon owner Joe Ables is giving him a full salute. The Resentments, the local all-star outfit that Bruton founded, will lead the way, with guest appearances by Jon Dee Graham, Malford Milligan, David Grissom, Johnny Nicholas and more. Proceeds will go to the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians. — Peter Blackstock

Ansari, perhaps best known for playing Tom Haverford on the hit NBC sitcom “Parks and Rec” and two seasons of his own, often excellent series “Master of None,” has been keeping a lowish profile since January, when a woman using the name “Grace” wrote an article on Babe.net accusing Ansari of sexual misconduct during an encounter that Ansari has characterized as “completely consensual.” He’s back in Austin with a stand-up comedy show. — Joe Gross
