LA/San Diego advice
Does anyone know of any good blogs/forums etc to find out about decent gig happening in LA (or San Diego)?
Basically anywhere I can find out about more "underground" goings on - be it hardcore/metal/electronic/noise - anything really. DIY shows also.
I'm going at the end of Sept, and may get to see AIds WOlf which is nice but want more!
Thanks in advance!
are you me?
I'm going Sept 30th -> Oct 4th, so will be at that AIDS Wolf show.
Sadly I've not found so much out about DIY shows. there are links on The Smell's site and also http://www.allagesmovementproject.org but a lot of them seem to not be booking shows or on a break right now.
ohmyrockness is good for shows though, and if you're search Last FM you're better off doing it from Hollywood rather than LA - for some reason searching LA leaves out a lot of the Hollywood clubs, but searching Hollywood includes everything. buh?
haha, I just may be!
I'm going out on the 21st Sept - 25th, then head to Vegas for a mates wedding then head back up to finish in LA again before flying out on the second. I just have to convince the Mrs that seeing Aids Wolf is the perfect way to spend the last night of the holiday.......
Yea, I found lot's seemed to not be booking at the moment also. Arab on Radar are playing a few but just before we're out there. Cheers for the tips though - I'll let you know if I find owt else also.......
The Casbah in SD is supposed to be pretty good
