I briefly describe some general issues in hadron spectroscopy and the implications for lattice QCD calculations. I note that only in a very few cases has lattice QCD managed to compute the mass of a hadron before it was discovered. I will then discuss the lattice QCD calculations relevant to searching for glueballs at the upcoming PANDA experiment. I will end with a brief report on our work on computing the spectrum of charmed baryons, where there is the possibility for predictions, but the calculations are simpler.
