Long live Tommy Stinson. With a career spanning from The Replacements to Guns N’ Roses, he shines in the rock pantheon as an underdog legend.

Despite major-league credits, Stinson has always kept his feet on the ground and in the trenches. Although underrated, his own projects like Bash & Pop, Perfect, Cowboys in the Campfire and solo work all enjoy cult esteem.

This weekend, he returns packing all that for a special, intimate appearance accompanied by NYC’s Karla Rose, who’ll also open with her noirish, slow-mo rockabilly.

Also opening will be erstwhile local and Gasoline Heart frontman Louis DeFabrizio, who, like Stinson, knows how to turn ragged heart into timeless magic.

8 p.m. Saturday, May 17, Stardust Video & Coffee, $25-$100.
