The saga of GWAR is a heartwarming, ultra-American success story: A group of Richmond art-college students transforms itself into the Scumdogs of the Universe, the most beloved novelty band since Doug Clark and His Hot Nuts rocked campuses way back when. GWAR’s music may not last, but the residue of fake blood and other fluids spurting at their had-to-be-there stage shows will stain your clothes for all eternity. The Meatmen and Brutal Juice open at 8 p.m. at the 9:30 Club, 930 F St. NW. $18. (202) 393-0930. (Eddie Dean)
