It would be a shame if Grant Lee Buffalo’s only claim to fame were Joey Peters’ replacement of an aneurysmal Bill Berry. Since its European tour with R.E.M., GLB has received much praise from the press but hardly any from the public. Perhaps that will change with the band’s third album.

With 16 Horsepower at 9 p.m. at the 9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW. $9. (202) 393-0930. (Tina Plottel)
